First Principal of Grove

Who knew that in 1906, Clovis G. Chappell became the first principal of Grove High School at the age of 24? He left Paris in 1908 to become a nationally acclaimed Methodist minister and author of 35 popular religious books. More than 50 years after leaving Paris, he spoke at the commencement of the Grove Class of 1959. Source: Ray Harding (I was there).
