Note:
Sayre cited his design for the high school in Lumberton in the Manufacturers’ Record (July 26, 1923). Meanwhile, the Lumberton Robesonian of February 22 and 26, 1923, encouraging local support for building the high school, announced that Sayre’s plans and a water-color perspective drawing would be on display so that citizens could see what the school board had in mind. When completed, the large, well-equipped school became a landmark in the community. It was razed in 1970.
