Six Mile High School, later renamed to Bonds-Wilson High, was located in the African American community of Liberty Hill, North Charleston, SC (Last Name, Year; Last Name,.) As of its opening in 1950, Six Mile High was the only African American High School in North Charleston and was founded on the land of Ishmael Grant. Grant, one of the four founders of Liberty Hill, understood the importance of education for the black youth of the community and allocated some of his land for the construction of Liberty Hill Elementary and Six Mile High School. From its opening in 1950, Bonds-Wilson High was a segregated school before its desegregation and integration with students from Chicora, Stall and North Charleston High School in 1971. The school was then closed in 1985 to be demolished and replaced by Charleston County Academic Magnet and School of the Arts. 

Bonds-Wilson Renaming

Though the school was originally named Six Mile High upon its opening in the fall of 1950, it was later renamed to Bonds-Wilson High School. Dr. J.R. Bonds, graduate of South Carolina State College and the supervisor of Charleston County School District 4, as well as John T. Wilson, graduate of Allen University and principal of Bonds-Wilson, both contributed greatly to the school and education in Charleston County School District. Bonds-Wilson was named in their honor due to all their contributions to the school and county.
