Columbus Africentric High School

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Columbus Africentric High School is a public high school located near downtown Columbus, Ohio. It is a part of Columbus City Schools. The schools original title, Mohawk Middle School, was changed in the late 90s, to allow the school not only separation from its original status, but also to expand it into a large school.

The very first organization that was started at Africentric was the Nubian Step Team. It was founded February 8, 1999 by Mama Eddings of Alpha Kappa Alpha Soriety, Baba Hatton of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, and Baba Owens of Phi Beta Sigma. To this day the step team has grown mentally, physically, and emotionally. The step team provides a sense of unity throughout the school and amogst all those who step in their presence.
