The Delaware Public Archives is preparing to unveil a new State of Delaware Historical Marker honoring a school that once served African American children in the Greenwood area during the period of racial segregation in education.
The ceremony is scheduled for Friday, July 17, 2026, beginning at 1:00 p.m. at 12655 North 1st Street in Greenwood, Delaware — the current location of New Process Fibre Company, Inc.
The marker will recognize Greenwood School 222-C, which was constructed in 1922 and provided education to Black students in the community at a time when schools were segregated by race.
