When the Brown v Board decisions eventually went into effect, the school finally became integrated in 1966, bringing great change and some challenges.
The presentation will share information from both the students and teachers perspective about: busing from surrounding counties, education expectations and what has been learned from the teachers’ perspective, their education qualifications, where they were from and where they resided while teaching at the 9th Avenue School, and what happened after integration.
