*The Sapelo School in Hog Hammock is next to St. Luke Baptist Church. The school was built during the Rosenwald School era, using a Rosenwald floorplan. However, it is not a documented Rosenwald School in the archive at Fisk University. There are other instances like this throughout the South.
The Harrington School on St. Simons Island, Ga., was built in the 1920s using a floorplan very similar to a one-room Rosenwald design.
History South has Rosenwald School floorplans that you can view and download.
