Built 1929-30 for $4520, this was originally the Carroll School for African American residents of the nearby Ogden community. Its cost was paid by local African Americans, the school district, and the Julius Rosenwald Fund. It closed in 1954 as part of S.C.’s effort to preserve segregation by equalizing black and white schools. In its last year, 141 students were taught by 4 teachers.
