Carmi Township High School Through the Years
A historical sketch traces Carmi Township High School from its 1885 start in a two story brick building to a modern campus. It notes shifts from a local district school to township status in 1914, early graduates, curriculum expansion after 1920, new wings and a fire in 1955, and current facilities and enrollment around 650 to 700 students under Supt. E. Thomas C. Jones.
