Julius Rosenwald and Rosenwald Schools National Historical Park Act

This bill would establish the Julius Rosenwald and Rosenwald Schools National Historical Park, a unit of the National Park System, to honor philanthropist Julius Rosenwald and the Rosenwald Schools that educated over 600,000 African American children in the segregated South from 1912 to 1932. The park would include three restored schools (in Maryland, South Carolina, and Virginia) and a visitor center in Chicago, Illinois, to preserve these sites and share their history through exhibits and educational programs. It also creates a national network to connect remaining Rosenwald Schools, enabling coordinated interpretation and resource-sharing across the country.
