Bristow
Rosenwald School
(1928-29)

The Bristow Rosenwald School followed one of two plans shown for a one-teacher school. The schoolhouse had a 22' x 30' classroom, two cloakrooms, and one community room. A picture of the school is not available and the location not known.

Contractor G.H. Tabor constructed the school in 1928 at a total cost of $1,750. African Americans contributed $100, public funding $1,450 and Rosenwald $200.

Lucy L. King received the contract in 1928 to transport African American pupils on the route from Plum Springs to the Bristow School.
