The county was one of five locales, which came to be called Brown v. The Board of Education\nTopeca, Kansas.The State of Virginia responded to the Supreme Court decision with what came to be called massive resistance.\n","In 1959 the Supreme Court of Virginia struck down Virginia's massive resistance laws. Public school systems throughout Virginia began to implement various programs to comply with the 1954 decision, the county\nof Prince Edward opted to close all public schools to prevent integration.\n","From 1959 until 1964, there were no public schools operating in Prince Edward County. In 1963 the Kennedy administration (mainly Robert Kennedy) brought the power of the Federal Government into the debacle in\nPrince Edward County.\n","The Federal Government and the United States Justice Department came to an agreement with the State of Virginia to reopen the Prince Edward County Public Schools as soon as possible. It became apparent very\nquickly that the previous four years had taken a heavy toll on both school facilities and students.\n","Because of the absence of public education, it was thought that a transitional school was neccessary until the public schools would reopen. The Free School was a result of cooperation between the Prince Edward\nCounty Public School and the Free School Association, which was formed in the summer of 1963. For a period of one year, the Prince Edward County Free School Board of Trustees took the place of the Prince Edward\nCounty School Board.\n","According to \"The Story of the Prince Edward County Free School\" \"A former Governor of Virginia, Colgate W. Darden, Jr., served as chairman of a six-man, biracial board of trustees composed of leading educators\nof the state who were to govern the new system's program. The other trustees who agreed to serve at the request of Governeor Harrison were Dr. Fred C. Cole, President of Washington and Lee University; Dr. Robert\nP. Daniel, President of Virginia State College; Dr. Thomas H. Henderson, President of Virginia Union University; Dr. Earl H, McClenney, President of St. Pauls College, and Dr. F.D.G. Ribble, retired dean of the\nUniversity of Virginia Law School. A New York Educator, Dr. Neil V. Sullivan, who had attained success with the most modern educational methods including non-graded instruction, was employed as school\nsuperintendent.\" The Board of Trustees were able to raise more than one million dollars to support the Free School Association during it's existance. The Free School was in existance for only one year 1964-1965.\n","The Prince Edward County (VA) Free School Association Papers document one aspect of Virginia's Massive Resistance to public school integration. Minutes, correspondence, reports, financial records, teachers and\nstudent records, vividly show the damage done to the African American Community during the time frame 1959-1963.\n","Between the years 1959 and 1963, there were no public schools in Prince Edward County, Virginia. After five long years the County and State allowed Prince Edwards schools to reopen.\nBecause the black children of the county had no school during this period of time (the white students attended an all white academy) it was thought best to organize a free school which would pave the way for\nhundreds of young children to return to school after a five year absence. The Prince Edward County, Virginia (free school) papers are the records of that effort. The papers contain correspondence, reports,\nphotographs and other items, which document this sad period in Virginia History.\n","English\n"],"collection_title_tesim":["1963-1967"],"collection_ssim":["1963-1967"],"repository_ssm":["Virginia State University"],"repository_ssim":["Virginia State University"],"acqinfo_ssim":["A gift from the Prince Edward County Free School Board of Trustees\n"],"has_online_content_ssim":["false"],"physdesc_tesim":["ca. 50,000 Pieces"],"arrangement_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eSeries I.

The county was one of five locales, which came to be called Brown v. The Board of Education\nTopeca, Kansas.The State of Virginia responded to the Supreme Court decision with what came to be called massive resistance.\n","In 1959 the Supreme Court of Virginia struck down Virginia's massive resistance laws. Public school systems throughout Virginia began to implement various programs to comply with the 1954 decision, the county\nof Prince Edward opted to close all public schools to prevent integration.\n","From 1959 until 1964, there were no public schools operating in Prince Edward County. In 1963 the Kennedy administration (mainly Robert Kennedy) brought the power of the Federal Government into the debacle in\nPrince Edward County.\n","The Federal Government and the United States Justice Department came to an agreement with the State of Virginia to reopen the Prince Edward County Public Schools as soon as possible. It became apparent very\nquickly that the previous four years had taken a heavy toll on both school facilities and students.\n","Because of the absence of public education, it was thought that a transitional school was neccessary until the public schools would reopen. The Free School was a result of cooperation between the Prince Edward\nCounty Public School and the Free School Association, which was formed in the summer of 1963. For a period of one year, the Prince Edward County Free School Board of Trustees took the place of the Prince Edward\nCounty School Board.\n","According to \"The Story of the Prince Edward County Free School\" \"A former Governor of Virginia, Colgate W. Darden, Jr., served as chairman of a six-man, biracial board of trustees composed of leading educators\nof the state who were to govern the new system's program. The other trustees who agreed to serve at the request of Governeor Harrison were Dr. Fred C. Cole, President of Washington and Lee University; Dr. Robert\nP. Daniel, President of Virginia State College; Dr. Thomas H. Henderson, President of Virginia Union University; Dr. Earl H, McClenney, President of St. Pauls College, and Dr. F.D.G. Ribble, retired dean of the\nUniversity of Virginia Law School. A New York Educator, Dr. Neil V. Sullivan, who had attained success with the most modern educational methods including non-graded instruction, was employed as school\nsuperintendent.\" The Board of Trustees were able to raise more than one million dollars to support the Free School Association during it's existance. The Free School was in existance for only one year 1964-1965.\n","The Prince Edward County (VA) Free School Association Papers document one aspect of Virginia's Massive Resistance to public school integration. Minutes, correspondence, reports, financial records, teachers and\nstudent records, vividly show the damage done to the African American Community during the time frame 1959-1963.\n","Between the years 1959 and 1963, there were no public schools in Prince Edward County, Virginia. After five long years the County and State allowed Prince Edwards schools to reopen.\nBecause the black children of the county had no school during this period of time (the white students attended an all white academy) it was thought best to organize a free school which would pave the way for\nhundreds of young children to return to school after a five year absence. The Prince Edward County, Virginia (free school) papers are the records of that effort. The papers contain correspondence, reports,\nphotographs and other items, which document this sad period in Virginia History.\n","English\n"],"collection_title_tesim":["1963-1967"],"collection_ssim":["1963-1967"],"repository_ssm":["Virginia State University"],"repository_ssim":["Virginia State University"],"acqinfo_ssim":["A gift from the Prince Edward County Free School Board of Trustees\n"],"has_online_content_ssim":["false"],"physdesc_tesim":["ca. 50,000 Pieces"],"arrangement_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eSeries I.
