TIME MACHINE: 1955, 1971, 1942, 1973.

Footnote: The reported sentiment in favor of a consolidated school was premature as strong support in favor of separate schools became evident. The Worcester County Board Of Education and Worcester County Commissioners later jointly agreed on separate new High Schools for Pocomoke and Snow Hill. In March the state legislature passed a bond bill for funding. Preliminary planning for the new schools was underway before the end of the year.

The Time Machine is a weekly feature I've enjoyed researching and compiling on The Pocomoke Public Eye since 2011.  I have fond memories of growing up in Pocomoke City and welcome reader contributions we can share about things you've read, remember, or were told relating to our Pocomoke/Eastern shore area...a sentence, a paragraph, or more all fine. Just email it.
