included Mrs. Shinault, Mrs. Pearl Johnson, and Mrs. Irene Collier. Mrs. Ruth Redus was the teacher in 1945, but the school closed that year due to low enrollment. It reopened the next year because the nearest alternative, the St. John School, was too far for many of the children to walk. When Moses Temple School reopened, Mrs. Nanie E. Horton was the teacher.

Mt. Pleasant School*
Mt. Pleasant School was located along Old Highway 20
east of Greenbrier and near the Madison County line.
Although it is unclear when the school began, Mr. James Shipley was reportedly a teacher there in 1881. By the late 1940s, the land with the schoolhouse was bought and the building was torn down. The school was never rebuilt. Rev. A.M. Donaldson, who owned a two-room house on his farm, allowed the community to use his home as a school for a time. Ms. Ida L. McDonald taught at Rev. Donaldson's house.
