Have you driven past the Old High School lately? The front facade has been replaced!  We are happy to see this phase of the rebuilding accomplished.

Want to help with the project?  Cornerstone provides the opportunity to financially support the effort to rebuild.

The Cornerstone Campaign was launched to help with the restoration of the Historic Hattiesburg High School. The University of Southern Mississippi,  College of Arts and Letters has made a commitment to use the building for a variety of classes and performance groups once its renovated.

Why should you help? Here are just a few reasons:

• You support downtown revitalization.

• You believe in using rather than losing valuable landmark buildings

• You can see the vision of a fully restored Old High School, alive and functioning, once again filled with students and activities

• You can visualize the economic impact of this project on downtown and neighborhood development

• You understand the value of a thriving, growing downtown to the City of Hattiesburg.
