It’s Throwback Thursday on WLAF

Did you attend Lafollette High School, Junior High or Middle School?

By Charlie Hutson

LAFOLLETTE, TN (WLAF)- In the school year 1975-76, the old Lafollette Jr. High on West Central Ave was closed and the former Lafollette High School became the new location of the Lafollette Jr  High.

The sign on the gym portion of the school was changed by adding Jr. Several years later, it was changed  Lafollette Middle school. That building except for the auditorium was razed in 2000. (WLAF NEWS PUBLISHED-02/06/2025-6AM)
