History


Until the integration of public schools, a separate school system was maintained for white students and black students. The first colored school in Crestview was built in 1926, and named Crestview School. In 1945, Crestview Colored High School was built on School Avenue. It was renamed Carver School after George Washington Carver, and eventually Carver-Hill School in honor of African-American education advocate Ed Hill.
