  During the early 20th century, there was significant debate and opposition within Loudoun County, Virginia regarding the School Board's plans to purchase land adjacent to the colored high school in Leesburg. The petitioners argued that the land in question was more suitable for the expansion of the Union Cemetery of Leesburg, which was in need of additional space for burials. They also pointed out that most colored children attending the high school lived south of Market Street, making the proposed location inconvenient for the majority of students. The petitioners urged the School Board not to proceed with the purchase, emphasizing the detrimental impact it would have on both the cemetery and the education of colored youth in the community.

  This letter dated May 10, 1932, from the Community League, patrons of the Colored Public School, and taxpayers in Loudoun County, Virginia, to the Board of Education, highlights a call for change in the graded departments of the school.
