Handiwork of Barney Taylor's ACHS welders, Ag Dept. painters 2016-11-19 - Adair County High School, 526 Indian Drive, Columbia, KY - Photo by David Jones, Adair County School District. David Jones, Adair County School District, featured an in-house, student/teacher, Ag & Welding department fabrication collaboration which resulted in all shiny new dumpsters for the Adair County School District campus. The District supplied the materials, which were fabricated by Barney Taylor's Welding classes, and were then painted by the Adair County High School Agriculture Students.
