Laurens County Museum Seeks Community Help to Complete Historic Yearbook Collection

The Laurens County Museum is asking for the community’s help to preserve a piece of local history by filling in gaps in its high school yearbook collection.

The museum currently houses yearbooks from several Laurens County schools, with the strongest representation from Laurens High School and Clinton High School. The collection spans from as early as 1925 through the late 1990s, but several years are missing.

Museum staff hopes residents who may have yearbooks tucked away at home will consider donating them so the collection can be made more complete and available for public display.

Missing years include:

Laurens High School

• 1926–1944

• 1948

• 1963

• 1975

• 1978

• 1980–1990

Clinton High School

• Any year prior to 1957

• 1977

• 1984

• 1985

• 1988–1995

Donated yearbooks help preserve memories of students, faculty, and school life from generations past and provide a valuable resource for researchers, families, and longtime residents.

Those willing to donate a yearbook are encouraged to drop it off directly at the Laurens County Museum during regular hours. Each contribution helps tell the story of Laurens County and ensures these pieces of history are preserved for years to come.
