Created By: The Heritage Center of Murfreesboro and Rutherford County
A center for African American education for over 100 years, the two-story brick school was built in 1917 and opened in 1918. With the opening of Holloway High School in 1928, Bradley became a school for younger students before closing in the 1960s as the city’s schools slowly desegregated. Restored by the community in the 1990s, Bradley Academy houses an original classroom, and history and arts exhibits about the African American community.
