Own a piece of Southport History!! This Historic Marker tells the story of Brunswick County Training (BCT) School, a Rosenwald School. From 1925 through the late 1950s, BCT was the only school for Black Brunswick County students that went beyond the 8th grade. The vintage Historic marker was once displayed in Southport as part of the Historic Walking Tour. It was located on Owens Street in front of the current Brunswick County Community College building. It has since been prepared for display with a custom wooden frame. A heavy wrought-iron easel is included to facilitate display in your home, business, or organization. The framed marker’s dimensions are 38” by 26”. The dimensions of the easel is 20.5”w x 16”d x 48”h. See the photos for an example of what the marker would look like on the easel.
