- catalog abstract ""In 1910, what became the Brevard Rosenwald School in Transylvania County, North Carolina, opened its doors to African American students from the community and the surrounding area. It was a microcosm of the community it served: teachers and pupils lived on the same streets, shopped in the same stores, and worshiped at the same churches. Teachers and parents served on the same committees, confronted similar social and economic problems, and sought each other's advice." "This book is a history of the school, with special attention given to the years 1920 to 1966 when it was officially the Brevard Rosenwald School, and its attempts to improve the education of African Americans in the South. It also focuses on the school's beginnings, development, significance to the community, closing, and the integration process and the Rosenwald community today. The author also presents narratives from former students about their experiences and educational goals, pursuits and accomplishments at the school and later in their lives."--Jacket.".
