WELCOME TO COWEE SCHOOL
Built in 1943 on the site of a Civilian Conservation Corps camp by the WPA, Cowee School served thousands of students
until it was closed as a school in 2012. It continues as an institution of learning, an exciting outdoor venue for music and the arts,
and host to a number of affiliates, classrooms, and programs. There is So much to do at Cowee School!
