Cayce Colored School
In 1927-28, a wood frame school was built on this site to house the Cayce Colored School. It served African American residents of Cayce and was part of the Brookland-Cayce School District. Grades 1-7 enrolled at the school for much of its history. Approx. 200 students attended each day in the 1930s. The school was later expanded and was brick-veneered c.1950. It hosted performances, talks, and other community events.
Cayce Negro Elementary School
In 1953, a ten-classroom brick building was built south of the old school, by then known as Cayce Negro Elementary. It was funded by the S.C. equalization program, a state effort to preserve segregation by improving Black schools. The school was renamed for local teacher Ida A. Bull in 1965. It closed in 1969 as part of integration. All that remains of the school is the equalization wing along Wilkinson Street.
