History


John Newton McEachern, co-founder of the Life of Georgia Insurance Company, displayed an early interest in the education of young people. Mr. McEachern’s financial support and his donation of 240 acres of land enabled the establishment of a new school in the Macland community. His endeavors inspired further donations for the
school from civic-minded citizens. From these efforts an ambitious building project began. As a result of the work and dedication of Mr. McEachern and the community, the Seventh District Agricultural and Mechanical School opened in February 1908.
The students selected the Indians for their school mascot under Principal Julian Garrison in the early 1950’s.
Between 1970 and 1975, enrollment at all grade levels increased to the point that a transfer of first through eighth grades to other schools in the area was necessary. The campus became one school known as John McEachern High School in 1975.
