Located
in Paragon, IN, the first school serving the area was held in a
house beginning in 1857. Several years later, a brick school was
built in 1866 at a cost of $2,500. The first iteration of the
Paragon School was built at the turn of the century in
1900 by Wesley Potter and served first- through twelfth-grade
students. It was located at the north end of Main Street and
included 10 classrooms, an office, and a library. In 1920, Paragon
School expanded by three classrooms and added an auditorium, cloak
hall, clinic, and gymnasium.
In
1956, the school consolidated with the Metropolitan School District
(MSD) of Martinsville. By this time, the school functioned as an
elementary school, serving grades 1 through 6. Later, the old school
was torn down, and the present school building was constructed at a
cost of $850,900. In 1975, the sixth grade was moved to West Middle
School in Martinsville. Presently, Paragon School is a K-5 school
with a student population that increases annually.
