In February 1909, members of the community in Mt. Gilead District number two, Loudoun County, Virginia, signed a document committing to financially support the acquisition of land and construction of a new High School Building. The signatories pledged to pay specified sums, with half due by April 15, 1909, and the remaining half by August 15, 1909. They agreed to waive the benefit of their respective Homestead Exemptions for this obligation. The School Board was to gather at least EIGHT THOUSAND DOLLARS in subscriptions by parties deemed financially able and planned to select a suitable location near the crossroads in Lincoln for the new school building. The total cost of the project, estimated at TWELVE THOUSAND DOLLARS, would be funded through various means, including the sale of existing school property and potential taxation.
