1912 - The Winthrop Training School Building was Built

In 1912, construction on the Winthrop Training School Building was completed. The Winthrop Training School was used by Winthrop as a K-12 model school for education majors to practice teaching. The school remained in operation until 1968 and in 1969 the Winthrop Training School building was renamed the Withers Building after Sarah Withers, the school’s first principal and a graduate of Winthrop College. Now known as Withers/W.T.S. Building, it houses the School of Education.
