New advanced studies building at Gainesville High School to include Beulah Rucker Hall Floor to be named for pioneering Black educator Beulah Rucker
If ever there was a place for the legacy of Beulah Rucker Oliver, known by most as Beulah Rucker, to be honored and immortalized, it would be at a school.
And that’s just what will happen at Gainesville High School, after a namesake dedication at the $9 million advanced studies building being constructed on the campus received unanimous support from the Gainesville school board on Tuesday.
The bottom floor of the advanced studies building will be called “Rucker Hall,” in honor of the daughter of illiterate sharecropper parents turned educator.
