"AH: How’d your parents pick Miss Baldwin’s school for you instead of public school?
BC: At the time we lived like two streets over from where, you know, this particular school was located. And it was a good Christian school. Only thing she taught was the Bible. She was the first person that taught me the Lord’s Prayer. And I was only three years old and I knew it word for word for word.
And every day she would give us a Bible lesson. So first week, she told us about Adam and Eve. And she would always say, “And stay out of my bushes. Stay out of my bushes.” That’s how I remember that story. So every time we would see one another we’d say, “Stay out of the bushes! Just stay out of her bushes.” So we would always see somebody hiding behind the school or something, “Stay out of the bushes!” That’s how we remember Adam and Eve, right?
Well, next week she told us about Cain and Abel. And in the end she said, “And don’t kill your brother!” I said, “Well, I don’t have"

| Notes | The Baldwin School, Yesterday and Today was a Spring 2006 UNCG Public History Program class project at The University of North Carolina at Greensboro. Its purpose was to document the history and legacy of the school opened in 1942 by Rosetta Baldwin in her living room in High Point, N.C. For the following seven decades, the school provided religious-based, private education primarily to the city's African-American and Seventh-day Adventist communities. The story of Baldwin school has been told by its class of 1963, and captured by a group of graduate students. |
