Note:

Representative of advanced thinking about school architecture in the movement to build good schools in the early 1950s, the multi-unit, modernist brick school had separate buildings for different class levels. It was razed in 2009 to make way for a new building of the same name, which met that period’s focus on a more unified building. See Raleigh News and Observer, July 15, 2009.
