Profile: Putnam County
Year Minimum Foundation building program completed
c. 1957.

Hawkinsville city and Pulaski County had separate school systems at this time of building. African American students were oddly split between the two, even on a singular campus. Nothing is currently known about the building programs for either, but Google Street View of the old Bozeman school site shows that an addition was built to the original building.

Year of total integration
1970.
