Curtis School was organized in the early 1900’s and was originally located one-half mile south, where New Ebenezer Baptist Church now stands. A new school was built on this site in 1929 when Curtis, Mt. Zion, and Rhodes Schools were consolidated. Danley’s Crossroads School joined Curtis School in 1931. The building burned in 1940 and was rebuilt in 1941. After the school closed in 1967, it stood vacant for a few years until it was destroyed by fire. E. C. Griffin served as the last principal, and other principals included R. L. Farris, F. T. Waldon, D. B. Nelson, J. E. Cheatum, and C. M. Byrd.
