Booker T. Washington High School is a secondary school currently located at 6000 College Parkway in Pensacola, Florida, and is part of the Escambia County School District. It was named after the African-American education pioneer Booker T. Washington. The previous location for the school is now in use as the J.E. Hall Center.

Booker T. Washington is also the primary location for disabled students in the county.

History

[edit]

The school first opened in 1916 as a segregated black school and remained that way until 1969, when it was integrated as a result of a federal court order. It moved from its previous location on Texar Drive in 1982 to College Parkway.
