Gray Court-Owings School

Gray Court-Owings School is a two-story brick building with classical columns framing its main entrances. The campus includes a smaller brick structure from a later expansion and a wooden storage building, all arranged across the property.

The school opened in 1914 to serve the educational needs of the Gray Court area. A major building campaign in 1928 added teaching and performance spaces that reflected the community's investment in schooling.

The school served as a social gathering place where the community came together for education and civic events. Its design reflects the values of early 20th century rural South Carolina, where the schoolhouse was central to local life.

The school sits along a main highway making it easy to spot from the road. The building and grounds are visible from the street, and the property remains accessible for viewing the exterior architecture.

A small wooden storage building from the 1930s still stands on the property, originally used by local farmers to preserve their crops. This structure connects the school to the agricultural world that once surrounded it.
