HISTORY
The Town of Wendell started in the 1850's when tobacco farmers in Granville County were hit with what came to be known as the Granville County Wilt. The tobacco crop failed and farmers from Granville County moved into eastern Wake County looking for fertile land to plant their crops.
Ambrose Rhodes donated land for a school to be built. The school would be called the Rhodes School. It was located at the same site as what is now Wendell Creative Arts and Science Magnet Elementary School. In 1891, the name was changed from Rhodes School to Wendell Academy.
