Eastside Early College High School in Austin, Texas, embodies a vision of academic excellence, multiculturalism, and community connectivity. Relocated to the historic site of the Original L.C. Anderson High School, it honors an 82-year legacy of serving the African American community. Closed in 1971 because of desegregation orders, the original school saw its students scattered to other campuses. The building, vacant for decades, was left structurally condemned. The school has been revived through historical reconstruction, an alumni gallery, and graphic history walls.
