Located on Chinquapin Road and Campbell Road about 3 miles northeast of Monetta SC, this one room old school is in poor condition and can barely be seen from the road due to tree overgrowth. Probably abandoned in the early 1950s with the consolidation and building of equalization schools in South Carolina. I haven't been able to determine if this was a white or african-american school as schools in South Carolina were segregated.
