Petty, superintendent George Nancarrow, the Morgan County School Board, and Governor Albert P. Brewer saw an increasing need for the development of an Area Vocational/Academic School for eastern of Morgan County. Albert P. Brewer Area Vocational and High School was created in 1972 by combining grades 10-12 from seven area high schools.The school evolved from combining the five high schools of Cotaco, Eva, Ryan, Union Hill, and Priceville. Also, the other high schools in the Morgan County School System send their vocational and JROTC students to Brewer. In 1981 the 9th graders were also moved to Brewer. Beginning with the 2001-2002 school year, Priceville High School began removing one grade each year to become a high school again. Therefore, Brewer's student body now consists of students from four feeder schools.
