===Mooresville Friends Academy===
The Mooresville school system began with the Friends Academy, which was built in 1861. The Academy Building, one of the first high schools in the state of Indiana, was a boarding school with students renting rooms from area residents. The school building sits on the Newby Memorial Elementary School campus, has been restored, and is listed on the [[National Register of Historic Places]]. The building now serves as a local [[history]] [[museum]] as well as the offices of the Community Foundation of [[Morgan County, Indiana|Morgan County, Inc]]. Also on the Newby campus is the "old Newby gym" or the "Newby Dome." The gym was built in the early 1900s with help from Mooresville residents who each contributed $100 to help build the facility. The campus also includes the Mooresville Veterans Memorial, which honors Mooresville's fallen soldiers from World War I and beyond. The Memorial also honors [[Sammy Lee Davis]], who received the Medal of Honor for heroism in Vietnam. Davis is known as "The Real Forrest Gump" since his Vietnam story is mirrored in the movie [[Forrest Gump]] and his Medal of Honor ceremony footage is used in the movie.<ref name="MCSC"/>
