This bell is mounted in a brick display on the front yard of the high school. The bell, and a WPA shield from 1940, are part of a dedication to the Thackerville Alumni Association in 1995.
The bell is engraved "No. 30 Yoke" and was manufactured by the C.S. Bell Company, which made bells between the years 1875 and the 1970s. (
