For over a century, Booker T. Washington served our community. After closing in 2016, this historic building sat empty until a powerful partnership brought it back to life.
“Closing a school is never an easy decision, it affects entire communities and families who have deep roots in these buildings;” said Bladen County Schools Superintendent Dr. Jason Atkinson. “While conversations regarding school closures are always difficult, it is uplifting to see Booker T. Washington brought back to life in such a meaningful way. What once was a painful closure has become a blessing returned—a vibrant facility that’s now serving our community and opening doors for our students in new ways.”
Students from East and West Bladen High School recently toured the beautifully renovated Booker T. Washington campus, now home to Bladen Community College’s state-of-the-art culinary program. This partnership shows the power of community collaboration with students at the center.
