Colored Graded Schools Opening Aug. 25, Says Thomas Shields, Aug. 19, 1919

From The Commonwealth, Scotland Neck, N.C., Aug. 19, 1919

Opening of the Colored Graded School

The Colored Graded School will open on Monday, August 25th, and will continue nine months as usual.

Parents and guardians are especially requested to have their children in on the first day or some day during the first week, so they can be properly graded and get the correct start. The law requires that all between the ages of 8 and 14 to attend regularly.
--Thos. Shields
