Black Heritage Tour: #6, Dunbar School (part 1 of 4)

Intro | Previous | Next

Gloria Smith's tour did not prepare me at all for the sight that awaited me:

6. On Main Street is located what is now Spring Junior High School. It was the first and only black high school in Tucson and was called at the time Dunbar High School.

I'm leaving these pictures without commentary for now; part four will explain the history and current status of Dunbar/Spring.
