Wiley H. Bates High School was a historic black school building in Annapolis, Anne Arundel County, Maryland. It was completed in 1932, and replaced the original Annapolis Colored High School.[2] The school building was named after Wiley H. Bates, a prominent African-American businessman and community leader whose financial donations enabled the school to be built.[3] The name of the school lives on in Wiley H. Bates Middle School, while the original building has been turned into a retirement home combined community center. [4]
