Little Cities of Black Diamonds
Built by Knowles Construction, Central consolidated all of the one room schools in the area. It ceased serving as a high school in 194o but remained opened as an elementary school until the early 1960’s. After that it served as the bus garage for Southern Local Schools until it was torn down in the late 1990’s

We Need Your Help to Save a Little Cities Landmark. We have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to purchase the historic Ward Building in New Straitsville! We have a plan to restore the building to its former beauty and make it into a public heritage center, and we need $5,000 to reach our first fundraising goal.
