Description

The Rosenwald Schools of North Carolina were schools built for African Americans in the South during the Jim Crow era. Julis Rosenwald, the son of German Jewish immigrants and the president of Sears, Roebuck and Company, established a fund to help address the segregated education system for African American children. In combination with the Rosenwald Fund, the schools were funded with public funds and donations. The School Photographs File from the Department of Public Instruction's School Planning Section contains photographs showing the construction of these schools, school staff, construction workers, and even children during this time period.
