History
Holmes Community College originally began as Holmes County Agricultural High School, established in 1911 when the town of Goodman provided forty acres of land and the Board of Trustees bought forty-two acres of land on the west side of Goodman, Mississippi. In 1922, the Mississippi Legislature made it legal for agricultural high schools to add two years of college work. Holmes added the first year of college work in the 1925-1926 school session and a sophomore year of college work in the 1928-1929 school session.
