School Profile

The original Marbury School was established in 1910 in the Marbury community and employed three teachers. By 1917, a building for the school had been erected and the population had increased to seven teachers and fifty students. The grammar school located near the cemetery burned in 1919, which was the same year that the high school became accredited. In 1930, a new high school was built where Marbury Middle School is currently located and later in 1934 the building was expanded to accommodate grammar school students. The grammar school students had previously attended classes on the second floor of the bank building. Many students walked to school and others rode the train. On March 3, 1993, a tragic fire destroyed the sixty-three-year-old school building. A new school was built in the same location to house Marbury High School and Marbury Elementary and opened in September of 1994. In 2008, plans began for the construction of a new facility to house grades nine through twelve located on Highway 31 near Pine Level Elementary School. In 2009, Marbury Middle School was established within the same building as Marbury High School. In May 2010, Marbury High School held an open house in the new facility and held its first graduation. In May of 2011 there were 85 graduates and the school has continued to grow.  In May of 2018, Marbury High School had 113 graduates.
