Inscription

Pepper School, established in 1914-15, was built on land donated “for the children of my community” by William A. Pepper (1829-1914). The school, with three teachers and about 75100 students in grades 1-7 for much of its history, closed after the 1952-53 school year. The Augusta Road Ruritan Club bought the building in 1964, preserved it for the community, and meets there now.
