History

"Germantown correlates to the growth in population in the area. The early settlers built a log schoolhouse in 1833, which was replaced by a two-story building in 1879." - per The Germantown Historic Preservation Association url=https://germantowntnhistory.org/

By 1910, the Shelby County Board of Education had purchased three acres for a new school building serving grades one through twelve, and also in 1911, students moved into the new building with five classrooms and a study hall. [3] Wagonettes pulled by horses or mules were also the common mode transportation at the time, but by 1918, motorized wagonettes were used.

Additional rooms and buildings were added to both sides of a WPA facade in 1918, 1919, 1927, and 1935, for the Germantown Public School.
