The following buildings were added to the National Register of Historic Places as part of the Florida's Historic Black Public Schools Multiple Property Submission (or MPS).
The public school system of Volusia County, Florida was founded in 1869, and the first public school for the county was built in 1872 in New Smyrna Beach. The public schools had very few resources allocated, until the mid-1880s. In 1887, the system supported 379 African American students in 19 schools, most of which were one-room buildings. By 1915, the number of African American students had increased to 2900, supported by 38 school buildings. Around one decade later, they consolidated small rural schools into larger, centrally located facilities resulted in 24 buildings for 4300 African American students. Despite the consolidation and construction of larger schools, several relatively small public schools were built for African American students in Volusia County's during the 1920s, including DeLeon Springs Colored School, and Orange City Colored School.
