Coupled with the residential growth of Olney was the expansion of the school system which meant the renovation of most of the area's schools and the construction of several new ones to accommodate the growing town. In only 30 years, Olney was transformed from a largely agricultural and arts town to a very affluent, highly educated and cultured residential area.
