Second Union School

Second Union School, constructed in 1918 and operated until 1959, is the oldest-surviving of the ten Rosenwald schools built in Goochland County. The African American community and Goochland County contributed funds to the building. It is a one-story, two-room, two-teacher-plan school with a brick interior chimney on the rear wall, and original chalkboards survive in both rooms. The school is among five thousand built in fifteen states, including three hundred sixty-seven in Virginia, using money and plans from the Julius Rosenwald Fund.
