From 1929, the school served the African American community in the Ogden area of York County. It closed its doors permanently in 1954, but a restoration effort began in 2001,[1] and was completed by 2004.[2] It now serves as a place to teach students the Great Depression.[3]
It was one of over 5,300 building built by and for African-American communities.[3]
