History
[edit | edit source]Autauga Private Academy was founded in 1969 as a segregation academy.[2] It is distinct from a seminary of the same name founded in 1888.[3]
Autauga attracted the attention of the United States Commission on Civil Rights, prompting an inspection tour in 1982, along with eight other schools in Alabama[4]
In 2011 a black student, future National Football League tight end O. J. Howard — then a student at the school — was told by the headmaster of the school he could not bring a girl to the prom because she was white.[2]
