Abstract: Alexander Graham Junior High School once reigned as the only separate unit junior high school in the city of Charlotte, North Carolina. From this experimental unit, a new and successful grading system started for the city of Charlotte. The original structure has already been demolished and the site on which it was situated now displays a statuesque, new Young Men's Christian Association building. The history of education has made no secret of the adjustment problems which have been ever present between the elementary and the high school levels. In their search for a sound solution to this undesirable aspect of the educational structure of Charlotte in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, the leaders of education fostered the separate unit junior high school idea.
