Historic Tuesday: Warrenton’s New Deal Post Office
Did you know that Warrenton’s post office wasn’t always in its own building? Before 1939, it was located inside the Courthouse! Thanks to the Public Building Administration, a part
of President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal, our town received funding to construct this beautiful brick post office.
Built in 1939 with federal Treasury Department funds, this building has served our community for decades and even doubled as a fallout shelter during WWII. The post office originally housed a New Deal mural, which has since been relocated to Augusta.
Today, it stands as a testament to Warrenton’s resilience and history, still serving residents just as it did over 80 years ago! Stop by and take a moment to appreciate this piece of our town’s past.
Located in the heart of Warrenton

In the U.S., many of us are struggling with our diets—and it’s taking a serious toll on our health. From the rise in chronic conditions like heart disease, diabetes, and obesity to the increase in mental health challenges, the foods we’re eating are affecting more than just our waistlines.
It's time to take control of our health and start making better food choices, one meal at a time. Let’s prioritize nourishing our bodies with real, whole foods for a healthier future. By making small, positive changes in our diets—like swapping processed foods for whole grains, fruits, and vegetables, and drinking more water—we can start reversing the damage and improving our health.

​History Tuesday: Warrenton School
Education has long been a cornerstone of the Warrenton community, and the story of Warrenton School is one of growth, resilience, and commitment to learning. The first school in Warrenton, likely a simple log structure, was located near the current courthouse. As the town grew, so did the need for a dedicated learning space.
By the late 19th century, the Warrenton Academy had become a well-established institution. Early education in the area often separated boys and girls into different buildings, with the "Boys’ Academy" and the "Girls’ Academy" operating in tandem. Over time, these schools were consolidated, and by the early 1900s, a modern, brick schoolhouse stood as a testament to Warrenton’s investment in education.
The 1908 Warrenton School (pictured here) was a significant step forward, offering a more structured curriculum, better facilities, and even a growing library. The school system continued to evolve, overcoming challenges like fires and structural rebuilding to serve generations of students. By 1928, a city school district was established, leading to even further expansion and educational opportunities for Warren County’s children.
