VA-J5 George Washington Carver Regional High School


Marker text: GEORGE WASHINGTON CARVER REGIONAL HIGH SCHOOL

George Washington Carver Regional High School was founded in 1948 to serve the educational needs of black students in Culpeper, Madison, Orange, and Rappahnnock counties. Secondary schools for blacks in those counties were either nonexistent or inadequate for collegiate preparation. The regional high school was established as an economical solution to these problems. In 1968 the school was renamed the Piedmont Technical Education Center.
