About Us:

In 1908, the Legislature of Alabama passed a bill making possible a County High School in each of the counties of the State. Pickens County was among the first to take advantage of this opportunity, locating the County High School at Reform.

At that time, Reform was a town with a population of over one thousand. it was located in the northern part of the county, on the Mobile & Ohio Railroad, at the junction of the A.T. & N. Railroad, halfway between Tuscaloosa, Alabama and Columbus, Mississippi.

Back then the main building was a two-story structure, of concrete blocks, built upon modern plans, with beautiful architectural design, consisting of an auditorium, basement, offices, library, four class rooms, and adequately equipped laboratories in agriculture, chemistry, physics, biology, home economics, wood working, and blacksmithing. Since this time, our Pickens County High School facility has expanded, we now have a Band Hall facility, an old band Hall building, a Junior High building, a Main Office building, a Gymnasium, and a Senior High building.
