The Division Street School is a historic school building located at New Albany, Floyd County, Indiana. It was one of the first elementary schools for African-American children, with construction beginning in June 1884, and the opening in 1885. It was moved by thirty feet westward in 1922. It was untouched by the Ohio River flood of 1937. It operated as a school until May 1946, while segregation still took place; those students still attended were assigned to Griffin Street School. From 1946 until 1948 it was a Veterans Administration Office. It was then used as a maintenance shop for the New Albany/Floyd County School Corporation until 1999. After restoration, it is now used for various community activities.{{cite web| url = https://secure.in.gov/apps/dnr/shaard/welcome.html| title = Indiana State Historic Architectural and Archaeological Research Database (SHAARD) | publisher = Department of Natural Resources, Division of Historic Preservation and Archaeology | format = Searchable database| accessdate = 2015-10-01}} Note: This includes {{cite web| url =https://secure.in.gov/apps/dnr/shaard/r/22acd/N/Divisioin_St_School_Floyd_CO_Site_Card.pdf | title = Indiana Historic Sites and Structures Inventory: Division Street School| accessdate = 2015-10-01| author = Laura Thayer| date=1994}} and Accompanying photographs, [https://secure.in.gov/apps/dnr/shaard/r/8e40/N/Division_Street_School_STAR_article.pdf Newspaper Article], [https://secure.in.gov/apps/dnr/shaard/r/8e41/N/Division_Street_School-interm_report_pages.pdf Supporting Documentation], and [https://secure.in.gov/apps/dnr/shaard/r/8e42/N/Division_Street_School-New_Albany.pdf Letter].
