“I had a slumber party when I was little in one of the rooms in the school.” Melissa goes to add “I had two of my baby showers in the cafeteria. From 1921 to 2017, it was used for the family of Milissa, her grandfather owned the old schools since she was a child. Where is Center Hill now? It’s still at the junction of Russell Cave and Hawkins-Cummins road. This only lasted a little while because I finished 5th grade in Cane Ridge.” Milissa stated. They had classes in every room and closet.
#ABANDONED SCHOOLS FULL#
Every room was full with more than 20 kids, I believe. “I remember in the beginning of 5th grade they moved us to Bourbon Central and it wasn’t very big for all of us kids. They had all these students in one school, which you might have guessed was very hectic. Along with the leaks and the paint, the population of students was multiplying and there wasn’t much room for the students any more. In 1991, Center Hill had to move all their students to Bourbon Central, which was the only elementary school in Bourbon at the time. When it rained, there would be more buckets and sometimes we wouldn’t have gym class because of the leaks.” The building got so old they had to move their students because they had no other choice. In an interview Milissa Soard, a former student of Center Hill said “I remember in the gym room they had buckets all over the gym floor to catch the waters from the leaking roof. Along with the lead paint, the electric wiring was very old and there were a lot of leak holes in the roof of the school. Lead in paint causes a lot of problems with your health.
The building was painted with paint that had lead in it. While the Cane Ridge school was being built, Center Hill was built in the summer of 1918 due to it being built so long ago there were a few problems.
If Cane Ridge has only been around for 32 years, what school did students go to before it was built? In 1990-1991, Centerhill, which was a school out in the country at the junction of Russell Cave and Hawkins-Cummins road, moved their students to Bourbon Central Elementary for half the year. Cane Ridge has only been built for about 32 years. Students that go to Bourbon County High School have probably gone to one of the three elementary schools: Cane Ridge, Bourbon Central, and North Middletown.
