In 1889, the Colored Industrial Institute (called St. Peter's Catholic School after 1916) opened in Pine Bluff, Jefferson County, Arkansas. Monsignor John M. Lucey was the driving force behind the establishment of Saint Peter's School. The school was located near Jones' Park on State Street between 15th and 16th Avenues.
