R.N. Harris Elementary School -

Rencher Nicholas Harris was a fearless advocate for desegregation and a champion for educational equity. As the first Black man to serve on both the Durham City Council and the school board, he broke barriers and paved the way for future leaders. In 1967, his legacy was honored with a school named after him—a testament to his unwavering commitment to progress. The site also played a pivotal role as the location of the historic SOS Charette, further cementing its place in the fight for justice and inclusion.
