I could find little about this school, other than this town is over 60% black population, and the big high school was the Black Allen-White High School. This was the white high school, opened in 1931, had a graduating class in 1953, and I could not find out when it closed.
What remains is a preserved front façade

Above the main entrance doors was this relief art rendition of the learning tree, I like it a lot.
