David T. Howard High School, Public school in Old Fourth Ward, Atlanta, US.
The brick educational building at 551 John Wesley Dobbs Avenue features multiple classrooms across multiple floors and serves the local community.
The institution operated from 1923 to 1976, starting as an elementary school before transitioning to a high school in 1948.
Martin Luther King Jr, Atlanta Mayor Maynard Jackson, and basketball player Walt Frazier studied at this educational institution during segregation.
After a 52 million dollar renovation project, the building reopened in 2021 as David T Howard Middle School to address neighborhood capacity needs.
The school bears the name of David Tobias Howard, a former slave who established Atlanta's first African American bank and largest black-owned funeral business.
