The Peirce School was named after
Solomon Peirce, a man of unimpeachable record in his time.
Born in
Lexington in 1742, his occupation was that of a farmer, a cordwainer (or
shoemaker) as well as a surveyor of highways. After his marriage to Amity
Fessenden, Solomon began to purchase various lots of land in this area and
over the years continued to buy adjoining property comprising a total of 95
acres.
In
January of 2003, the newly built Peirce School opened
its doors to our students, their families and the
community at large. Although the building may have
changed, the heart and spirit of our school and
its staff are more dedicated and committed to the
betterment of our children and the community than ever before.
