Grays Consolidated High School was a historic high school located at Grays, Jasper County, South Carolina. It was built in 1927 and rebuilt in 1931. It consisted of three projecting pavilions, with the central pavilion featuring decorative rafter tails, knee braces, and a two-part limestone inlaid plaque. Flanking this were projecting pavilions with hipped roofs. In 1931, the building was expanded with a large classroom wing extension and rear ell. Also on the property is a contributing outbuilding - a brick boiler room/storage room.[2][3]
