OAK RIDGE, Tenn. In November, WBIR 10News helped share the story of the Oak Ridge 85, the first Black students to integrate schools in the southeast in 1955.
For 65 years, their stories were largely unknown, but the secret in Scarboro stops here. Oak Ridge schools are in the process of adding the 85 s story to their curriculum.
Students chat while waiting for history class to start at Oak Ridge High School in September of 1955, when the once all-white high school was desegregated by order of the Atomic Energy Commission. The Tennessee city s school board is now formally including the story of its integration in its curriculum.
