Notes
  • Significance: Wyatt Elementary is an example of an early 20th century one-teacher school that was once typical of locally supported, church-based efforts to educate African-Americans in this coal mining area, and throughout rural Alabama. / ...It was built in 1908 from salvaged lumber. The school was operated by the Walker County Young Ministers Baptist Christian Association until 1825, and by the State and County until 1963. In the later 1960s and 1970s, the frame structure became a popular nightspot. Since 1990, the Alabama Mining Museum in Dora has operated the school as an interpretive center.
