Kelly Miller attended the school.[1] It opened in 1869. Rev. Willard Richardson served as principal.

Supported by the Presbyterian Church,[5][6] the school was succeeded by a school established by Rev. J. C. Watkins.[3]
Enrollment reached 354 students.[7] Brainerd Institute was within 20 miles.[8]
The school trained teachers and "workers for Africa"[6] to go on missions.[9] Richardson was also in charge of several churches.[10] It was a religious school and agricultural pursuits were taught.[11]
