Description
In the late 1960s it became clear that the fifty year old former high school building housing Lakeland Elementary school no longer met the needs of the community's children. Community leaders fought long and hard to have a new school built in Lakeland. This commitment was maintained despite the school board’s selection of a site occupied by several houses. Even those who would be losing their homes worked actively for a new school in Lakeland. They were triumphant and Paint Branch Elementary school opened in 1972 as an integrated elementary school with students from Lakeland and neighboring majority white communities. Today, the school serves over 350 students from pre-kindergarten through sixth grade. (Courtesy of Bryan Haynes/Gazette.)
