Closed in 1932, the Laurel Grove School has been restored by family descendants and interested citizens to tell the unique story of the community’s refusal to narrow its ambitions. Of all the colored schools opened in the region, only Laurel Grove exists today as the prized possession of a striving people, a “living museum” available to area schools and the general public.
