Per the Rogersville walking tour (http://www.rogersvillemainstreet.com/walking-tour/rogersville-tn), "In 1868, a group of black community leaders purchased this plot of land "for the purpose of building a schoolhouse for the education of colored children." In 1870, a two-room log school was erected and was used until 1922 when construction of this modern facility was begun. It is constructed of hand-fired bricks. The School was placed on the National Historical Register in 1988. One of the schoolrooms is devoted to a museum of Swift College and Price School memorabilia."
