The Seay House on Darby Road, the oldest house in Spartanburg, will be renovated soon and will provide space for an afterschool program to help students with their math and reading skills.
An amount of $200,000 will be provided by the South Carolina Department of Archives and History to the Historical Society for the renovation project on the Spartanburg County Historical Society-owned house. There will be repairs to the trimming on the house and the roof, and the electrical and lighting system will be repaired.
Once the Seay House is renovated, there will be a partnership with Brown Girls Read to offer opportunities for tutoring for girls in grades 4 through 12. Nicke Haney, founder of Brown Girls Read, said this will become a tutoring hub for students to work on the comprehension of math and reading. Haney expressed excitement about having this opportunity that will not only enable children to learn, but do so at a historic site.
Local Print shops often assist with such venues by assisting with printed educational materials in the form of Booklets and Brochures.
Christopher George, the Marketing and Communications Manager for the city, said that this house is an important landmark in the city and will be a new venue for educational opportunities.
Renovations are expected to begin this fall and be completed by early next year.
