History of Isom School
At least three buildings stood on the original site of Isom School, but early records don't say whether each was used as a school, according to research by local historian Paul Delk of Hampshire. The first was made of logs and erected in 1834 on the hill above Cathey's Creek Church of Christ. Later, it was torn down and the logs used to make a barn, which is still in use, (1980) on the S.A Worley farm, said Delk.
Shortly after the Civil War another building went up on the site at a cost of $2,500. It burned in 1892 and was succeeded on the same spot by another structure.
Mrs. W. O. (Josie) Kirk, 91, of Columbia said when she attended classes in the third building in the early 1890s it consisted of two rooms heated by a big pot bellied stove. "We had a little stage, too, for concerts and plays," she added. I was the little girl who died in 'Ten Nights in a Bar Room," she said, laughing at the memory.
Girls & boys had seperate play-grounds at Isom. She pointed out the curriculm in Isom School included Latin and higher math. "I went into geometry myself till I ran off and got married," Mrs. Kirk said, and laughed again. Students sat on long planks and worked at desk tops heavily scarred with many years' accumulation of carved initials.
"Girls wore gingham dresses that came down below their knees and they wore aprons with sashes tied behind. I remember one pair of red button-up shoes I had once, with silk tops. Oh, they were so pretty. The cloth was so shiny," she said.
"Boys wore shirts and trousers held up by suspenders, and most of them wore brogans." Mrs. Hobart Pogue of Hampshire said her parents attended classes in that building and she did, too, until it burned in 1916.
"The rest of the year we had school in a little store down on the creek, in the little village," she reminisced. "Then they built a school at the forks of a rood where Lusk Branch Road came into Cathey's Creek Road."
It was a very nice

building for the time. It had a music room and an auditorium which we also used for classes, and about four more regular classrooms.
Then, Isom School consisted of grades one through ten, and enrollment was abut 50 people Mrs. Pogue said. Some classrooms were used by two or three grades at a time. "We were supposed to get our lessons while the teacher worked with the other grade," she explained. "I believe children learned pretty well what they were supposed to."
Students sat at double and single desks, and they wrote with pencils and with pens dipped in ink wells cut into the desk tops. "We took our lunches in paper bags," she said. "Usually we had whatever was left over from breakfast--sausage and biscuits and boiled eggs. We ate out under the trees in little groups. "
We got our drinking water from a bucket we had to draw up from a good well at the school.
Later they did put
a new building named Stephens School. In 1932 she began to finish the school year in the church and houses nearby," she said." The first Stephens School was made an elementary school, with only the first through the eighth grades. I think we had center, but the Isom school was torn down in the 1950s, said Mrs. Hobart Pogue.
