The plaque beside the new flag installed this week reads, “Site of Jackman High School built in 1925. Named for P. Hiram Jackman (1845-1915). Born a slave, Civil War Veteran, Baptist minister, Pioneer in education. This was one of five Rosenwald Grant schools built in Adair County and the only high school for African Americans in this and adjacent counties until integration. This plaque was provided by the Columbia Woman’s Club in 2006."
