WOOSTER Virginia Blackwell wanted to be a teacher and she wanted to be a teacher in her hometown.
The opportunity finally arrived in 1963, almost 20 years after Blackwell earned her degree from West Virginia State College, an all-Black school at that time. Wooster City Schools hired her as a special education teacher, making her the first Black teacher in the district’s history.
