The admission in 1957 of nine African-American students to Central High School was a critical test of the implementation of the Supreme Court's Brown v. Board of Education decision, and drew national and international attention. The site will be administered in partnership with Little Rock Public Schools, the City of Little Rock, and others. The school will continue to function as an educational institution.
