Built in 1922 with support from philanthropist Pierre S. du Pont, Greenwood School 222-C was part of a statewide network of schools for children of color. Serving first through sixth grades, it was the only school for Black children in the area. The school encouraged education and attendance, promoted health, and hosted plays, recitals, and community events. After Brown v. Board of Education (1954) overturned Plessy v. Ferguson (1896), schools were desegregated. Greenwood School closed in 1962 and was later demolished, but its impact on the community remains.
