Sabine High School

Many, Sabine County · Louisiana
Erected 2021

A Rosenwald school built in 1928, the Sabine Parish Training School, came first. The 1957 buildings replaced it, designed by architects Seymour Van Os and Theodore Flaxman for Black students from kindergarten through twelfth grade in the segregated system. The school's basketball team won a Louisiana state championship in 1947, a decade before the new campus. After desegregation in 1970 the buildings became Many Junior High School, and the school closed in 2001. The campus was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on March 17, 2020, and a Pomeroy Foundation marker followed.
