Hoffman-Boston Senior-Junior High School

On October 20, 1931, Hoffman-Boston Junior-Senior High School is dedicated with ceremonies. The school replaced an older, 4-room school known as Jefferson, on approximately the same site. The school was named to honor two people who had served as principals in African-American country schools: Edward Clarendon Hoffman and Ella Boston.
