The Sky High School was in use as of 1933 and still in use as of the late 1940s. The one-room school was abandoned by the 1970s. It has an outhouse and (now covered) water well adjacent to it and it was once heated by a stove. It is located on the radio tower property just off Sky High Road, which connects Rush Hollow Road to Little Cabell Creek Road.
