Berry College Child Development Center
Berry College, founded by Martha McChesney Berry, evolved from schools established in the early 1900s for academically capable but economically disadvantaged children from the rural South into a comprehensive liberal arts college. Berry is noted for its dedication to mentorship, diversity, and community, offering 75 areas of study and an enriching campus life.
Martha Berry's lifelong commitment to serving impoverished families led to the creation of innovative educational institutions, including the Boys Industrial School and the Martha Berry School for Girls. These foundational schools set a precedent for vocational education in rural areas, ultimately culminating in the establishment of Berry Junior College, which transitioned into a four-year institution by 1930.
