Historic Sykesville Colored Schoolhouse

The Schoolhouse first opened in 1904 and, at that time, was the only school for people of color in Southern Carroll County. The last class graduated from it in the late 1930s, after which it was turned into a private residence. The Town purchased the Schoolhouse in the early 2000s and restored it to its original design. The Schoolhouse is open by appointment for tours and currently has a Homework Club with local elementary and middle school students who receive tutoring and school help from local volunteers.
