Ashland High School was a rural public kindergarten-grade 12 primary and secondary educational institution located in the village of Ashland in northern Natchitoches Parish, Louisiana from 1907 until its closing in 1981. ==Background== Ashland High School was originally a one-room structure. The late Judge H. Welborn Ayres, an Ashland native and AHS alumnus, refers to it as "one of the foremost rural high schools in the state," having offered instruction even in the less-studied subjects of physics and medieval history.〔H. Welborn Ayres, "History of Ashland, Louisiana", 13-page manuscript, Report to the Ramah Cemetery Board, 1979〕 Andrew R. Johnson, who had once taught school in Arkansas, donated the land for the original 1907 Ashland public school.〔 Later a banker and the mayor of Homer〔 in Claiborne Parish, Johnson also served in the Louisiana State Senate from 1916–1924, having represented Bienville and Claiborne parishes.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Membership of the Louisiana State Senate, 1880-2012 )〕 School records date from 1913. The school building burned in the spring of 1918, and no school was held for one year. The 1918 commencement exercise was held in the long since disbanded Ashland Methodist Church, with former U.S. Representative Phanor Breazeale, an attorney from Natchitoches, as the speaker. In his address, Breazeale focused on contributions of the American Red Cross during World War I and the example of service to which he encouraged the graduates to aspire.〔
