AFRICAN AMERICAN SCHOOL BUILDING REVIVAL
Mamou-Rosenwald High School

This school was originally a 300-square-foot building that was known as Mamou-Rosenwald School for one year before being converted to Celestine High School. The last graduating class of Celestine High School was in 1969 with 12 graduates. Integration laws caused Celestine to become Mamou Upper Elementary for all students and in 2004 was renamed Mamou Elementary school. Now, the school is split between Celestine High School and Mamou Elementary School.
