An African American high school
formed in 1917, it educated black
Fayette County children until 1956.
Students were taught in community
buildings and churches, 1950-1954,
after the school was destroyed by
fire. The second DuBois High School
opened in 1954 but was integrated
two years later when Mt. Hope white
students were brought in and school
was renamed Mt. Hope High School.
