On This Day in 1957, Little Rock Central High School Was Desegregated

On the 58th anniversary of the September 25, 1957 desegregation of Little Rock Central High School, the Clinton School honors the courage of Melba Patillo Beals, Elizabeth Eckford, Ernest Green, Gloria Ray Karlmark, Carlotta Walls LaNier, Terrence Roberts, the late Jefferson Thomas, Minnijean Brown Trickey, Thelma Mothershed Wair and their families. We are also most grateful to the Little Rock Nine Foundation for establishing an annual scholarship for a Clinton School student.
