DEDICATION The year 1953 is the 200th anniversary of the town of Greenfield. For this reason we have been interested in the story of the growth of the high school. We found that an article was placed in the town warrant in March, 1852, to see if the people would raise a sum of money to build or purchase a school house, as required by the State Law. A committee was named to study the matter, but no plan was carried out until 1855, when a high school was opened in a small room in Davis hall. Mr. Luther B. Lincoln of Deerfield was employed to teach at a salary of $50 a month. The experiment was successful and the school was moved in the autumn to a hall in the school house at Nash ' s Mills. The cost of the school for the first year was $696.14. In March, 1857, a committee was named by the towns¬ people to consider building a high school. They favored a location on Chapman Street (now a parking lot ) and submitted a plan for a two-story school house at a cost not Zir ' to exceed $4000. A vote was passed authorizing the build- ing, and the entire cost of building and furnishing was $5240. The Ch apman Street building was in use as high school until a new building was erected on Pleasant Street in 1872. The fourth building, now the Federal Street Junior High School, was erected in 1894, burned in 1904, and rebuilt, and the present high school was completed in 1923. — The Class of 1953 is proud of the people of Greenfield who have kept in tune with changing times, always making it possible for every child to be prepared to take his place as a citizen. It is, therefore, with great pleasure that we dedicate this EVERGREEN to the people of Greenfield. R F«L ? A
