The Old
North Kingstown Senior and Junior High
School in Wickford, Rhode
Island was built in 1931
for grades 7 through 12.
Beginning in 1959,
when the new High School
was completed on
Fairway Drive
between Wickford and Hamilton; it housed
grades 7 through 9.
In 1960
with the completion of additional classrooms at the new High
School, the 9th grade
students were relocated
to the new High School.
I attended 9th grade
in this building in 1959.
(I attended
7th and 8th at the temporary Robert E.
Perry Junior High facility located at the Davisville Seabee Base.)
In 1960
I entered the 10th grade
in the new facility
and graduated
from there in 1963.
In
1976
the building became home to the
6th through the 8th grades
and became known as Wickford
Middle School. |
