History

The school was formerly known as the Horace Mann High School and the Horace Mann Junior High School. It was opened as an all-negro high school in 1955. In 1958 the United States district court declared it to be equal to the school designed for white high school children.^[2]

Interior Design Associates won a gold award for design excellence for its renovation of the school that was completed in 2004.^[3]
