Closures Of Black K-12 Schools Across The Nation Threaten Neighborhood Stability


But other historically Black schools, such as Paul Laurence Dunbar Elementary in St. Louis, have not been so lucky. Dunbar Elementary, named after the famous Black poet and writer, will no longer physically enroll students. District leaders said they want to convert Dunbar to a virtual school beginning in August 2021. This led parents, community members and activists to protest the superintendent and school board’s decision, asserting that the physical closing of the school removes a key pillar in the historic Black Jeff-Vander-Lou neighborhood.
Two urban schools that I have researched, both renowned for educating low-income Black students, were also recently shuttered. Gentrification and the emergence of charter schools contributed to an enrollment decline at Whitefoord Elementary in Atlanta, leading it to close its doors in 2017 after serving the community for 93 years. Farragut Elementary in St. Louis - also located in The Ville - closed in May 2021. The rationale once more: declining enrollment.

Last place. Second-to-last. Third-from-last. No matter what districts the team at St. Louis University’s PRiME Center put St. Louis’ school enrollment up against, the city stayed at the bottom.
“We were kind of shocked going through it to see such a consistent result,” said Evan Rhinesmith, the center’s director of research.
St. Louis Public Schools has an average of 308 students in each of its 71 schools currently, according to the analysis. Include the city’s 36 charter schools, and it’s 313 children spread across 107 schools. Twenty-six schools in the district are
The district once educated 115,000 students. Today, its enrollment has fallen to about 21,000. While it’s been closing schools for decades, enrollment has yet to bottom out.

Ashe, Arthur (1943–1993) – Encyclopedia Virginia


SUMMARY
Arthur Ashe was a professional tennis player, broadcaster, author, and activist. Known for his on-court grace and low-key demeanor, he was the first black men’s tennis champion at the U.S. Open and Wimbledon, the first African American to play for and captain the U.S. Davis Cup team, and the first black man inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame. Yet it was and remains Ashe’s legacy outside of professional tennis for which he is most noted. He was the first and only African American to have a statue of his likeness erected on Richmond‘s historic Monument Avenue and one of the most prominent athletes of any race to die from AIDS.
