In the southern part of Jackson County, the white children of Weldon attended school in this wood-frame schoolhouse through the first half of the 20th century. Small rural schools like this one dotted the countryside all over the county. School consolidation later caused the closure of all such centers of learning, so that now there are only two school districts remaining.
