This article says it opened in 1982 as well [1]. And quoting from the original article “...that prompted Tubman’s creation in the 1980s, ...until..advocates got their way and Tubman was built, the school district bussed thousands of black children out of their own neighborhoods rather than provide them a school of their own.”
I’m trying to find out what it was before it became Harriet Tubman school but not finding anything.
(It doesn’t matter who was there first because we shouldn’t have a school there now. The problem should be corrected and moving the school is the only way. Air filters do not let kids play outside.)
