OUR SCHOOL IS BORN This is the story of our new high school from its very conception to the end of its first school year. Its life began in March, 1956, at the annual town meeting, when a committee was chosen to discuss the planning for the new high school. This move was necessitated by Berwick Academy's reversion to a strictly private preparatory school. The planning committee later be- came the School Building Committee with the addition of several new members. The members of this committee worked many long, hard, and vexing days, months, and years to make the South Berwick High School the best the town was able to provide. Our school, designed by Alonzo J. Harriman, Inc. of Auburn, Maine, and constructed by the Sprague Brothers, Inc. of Nashua, New Hampshire, was begun when the Building Committee representatives broke ground for the beginning of the construction. On August 1, 1959, the ground was broken by Richard Lilly, Verrill Perkins, and Mrs. Aimee Schramm. The leveling of the ground, the first big step in the building program, was started three days later. This picture, taken two months later, shows the work then being done on the Industrial Arts Building. 2 In the fall of 1959, the actual beginning of the school building, the foundation, was laid.
