Description

The Link School was located in Thomasville, across from Mallory's Church. Professor S.A. Link established the Link School in Thomasville, Tennessee around 1900 where students from a three-county area were given religious, moral, and strong academic training in a core of subjects such as English, Latin, Greek, History, Geography, Algebra, Geometry, Arithmetic and Physiology. This formed the basic organization of the first public high school in Ashland City, Tennessee a few years later. The pioneer, private school lasted until 1907 when a state funded elementary school was established in Cheatham County, Tennessee until the mid-1940s and later torn down.
