The Flint River Farms School Preservation Society is a non-profit organization based in Montezuma, Georgia. It was established with the aim of preserving and promoting the historical significance of the Flint River Farms School, which was an important educational institution for African American children in the early 20th century.

The school was built in 1922 and served as a primary school until 1954 when it was closed due to segregation. It was reopened in 1964 as a desegregated school and remained operational until the 1980s. The school building then fell into disrepair until it was acquired by the Preservation Society in 2009.

The Flint River Farms School Preservation Society has since worked to restore the school building and turn it into a museum that showcases the history of the school and the surrounding community. The museum features exhibits on the school's founding, its teachers and students, and the impact it had on the local community.

The Society also hosts events and educational programs aimed at preserving the history of the school and educating the public about the importance of African American education in the early 20th century. The Flint River Farms School Preservation Society is dedicated to preserving this important piece of history for future generations to learn from and appreciate.
