Crispus Attucks is probably best known nationwide as the real-life counterpart of the school that lost to “Hickory” in the movie Hoosiers. However locally Attucks is known as a cultural landmark and beacon of the black community.

If you are not aware of the rich history behind the school, you should take this opportunity to watch PBS’s documentary, Attucks: The School That Opened a City at the link below.
