Project Description: |

|
|
|
|
|
|
||
This is a not-for-profit foundation dedicated to saving and restoring Kerbo Elementary School.� Kerbo is Lafayette's one and only "all black" school created in the early 1900's.� Many of Lafayette County's black leadership gained first education and cultural foundation through the teachings of those who labored at Kerbo Elem.� Over the next five years this coaltion will be concentrating on: community development, tutoring/educational needs, crisis intervention center, juvenile crime prevention, recreation/teen center.� Kerbo is situated in the south end of Knight's Subdivion in the core of Lafayette's black community.� The coalition hopes to retain Kerbo as a memorial of their black heritage. |
