Peck High School: Golden Years Remembered

Peck High School--Golden Years Remembered A documented history of a school established to teach African- American students in Fernandina Beach, Florida starting in 1884 through 1929 in an era of segregation. Named after William Henderson Peck, one of the early principals and champions of African-American education in Fernandina Beach. Originally from Washington, D.C., he traveled to Fernandina specifically to educate students. W.H. Peck is recognized as among the Great Floridians of the state. The author, a graduate of Peck High School during the years of segregation, captures the rich legacy of the American story that unfolded during the period. The book is a testament to the dedication and commitment of many people working to build a strong educational organization to transform the lives of black children. Set in the context of local, national and world events, with alumni and staff names, readers will make a connection to those who graduated from what was known as Colored school Number 1, Colored School Number 2 and Peck High School.
