Exeter School System History Talk

November 18, 2024 @ 5:30 pm - 7:30 pm

Exeter Union High School located at 505 Rocky Hill Drive.

Dwight Miller returns with a brand new CACHE Chats: Tales of Exeter and Beyond history talk. Next month’s topic is “School Bells and Heritage: Exploring Exeter’s Educational Past.” The discussion will be held on November 18 at 5:30 p.m.
Join us for thought-provoking stories about early Exeter area schools. Miller will discuss the first schools in the area that began well before the town of Exeter was formed in 1888; these include Rocky Hill, Locust Grove, Kaweah, Central, Venice Hill, Lindcove, and Lemon Cove. Several major controversies arose in those early years, resulting in community outrage that erupted in significant meetings and petitions being signed. He also proposes that Exeter’s Woodrow Wilson School was the first “Wilson School” in the United States.
