The beloved high school closed in 1970 due to court-ordered desegregation. Charlotte S. Fulton ('69 BA English) acclaimed author and alumna of UAH spent nearly six years researching and penning the historical book, Holding the Fort: A History of Trinity School in Athens, Alabama, but her interest in the subject dates back to 1991, when she was a feature writer for the local newspaper, The Athens News Courier.
