The Lockhart Vocational-Carver High Restoration Committee is a group of individuals in Lockhart, TX dedicated to preserving the history and legacy of the old Lockhart Vocational-Carver High School. The school was originally built in 1951 as a segregated school for African American students during the time of segregation. The school was an important part of the community, educating generations of African American students until it was closed in 1969, when Lockhart integrated its schools.

The committee was formed in 2014 with the goal of restoring the old school building and turning it into a museum and cultural center. The group has been working tirelessly to raise funds and gather support for the restoration project, which is expected to take several years to complete. The project will include restoring the building to its original condition and creating exhibits that tell the story of the school and its impact on the community.

The committee has received support from local businesses, community organizations, and individuals who recognize the importance of preserving the history of the school and its role in the Civil Rights movement. The project is seen as a way to honor the legacy of the school and the students and teachers who were a part of it, and to educate future generations about the struggles and triumphs of the Civil Rights era.
