PATTERSON:

Originally called Presbyterian High School this unique educational
institution was established in 1901 by the Savannah Presbytery in order to
provide young people with a strong Christian education. For many years
students locally and from out of town walked its hallways gaining a quality
education. Students were boarded who lived out of town. The school closed
its doors in 1912. The building stands at the opposite end of town facing
the courthouse.
