Wadleigh High School, located in Harlem, was founded as a high school for girls and moved to its current landmark site in 1902. It is now known as Wadleigh Secondary School for the Performing and Visual Arts. The Wadleigh High School collection provides some documentation about Wadleigh High School, and the two schools (Wadleigh Junior High School 88 and Wadleigh Secondary School) later housed in the same building. The bulk of the documents deal with the time period when students and staff were predominately Black. [bulk 1960s - 1999]
