Lockerbie Academy traces its roots to the Dryfesdale Public School, founded in October
1875, and re-named Lockerbie Academy in 1903. In 1919, the Academy was recognized as an
approved five-year secondary school; but, in 1930 secondary education in the area was
centralized at Dumfries, and Lockerbie Academy lost its fourth and fifth year students.
By 1962 the Academy was a four-year secondary school and achieved six-year status in
1964.
In 1989 the Syracuse-Lockerbie Scholarship was established, allowing two
students from Lockerbie Academy to study at Syracuse University for one year. This
scholarship was established as a result of the bonds formed between Lockerbie, where Pan
Am Flight 103 crashed in 1988, and Syracuse University, which lost 35 students in the
tragedy.
In 2010 Lockerbie Academy opened the doors of a new school building. The
demolition of the old structure began in 2011.
The Lockerbie Academy Collection contains three series: Memorabilia; Photographs; and Printed Material. Memorabilia includes a coffee mug featuring the crest of Lockerbie Academy, a banner with the school crest and logo, and two lapel pins also featuring the crest. The Photographs series includes images of the new school building of Lockerbie Academy, and the miniature cairn located on the Academy's grounds. Finally, the Printed Materials series contains maps of the school complex, and the Lockerbie Academy Prospectus 2010.
Digital versions of items contained in the Photographs series are also available (Archives Image 14-055; Archives Image 14-097; Archives Image 14-098).
