History
Шаблон:Infobox NRHP Originally two public schools, the Bunker Hill School and the South Cranbury School, were established in 1850. On May 25, 1896, voters approved the construction of a consolidated grade school that would replace the Bunker Hill School and the South Cranbury School.[10] Construction on the school began in August 1896 and ended in January 1897. The school opened on January 25, 1897, with a population of 159 students. The school was dedicated on February 22, 1897. The Cranbury School had three departments: primary, grammar, and high school.[10]
Cranbury Neck School closed in 1903, and the students who attended Cranbury Neck attended Cranbury School after their school closed. In 1906, a south wing with two classrooms was added to the Cranbury School building.[10]
Wyckoff Mills School closed in 1910, and the students also attended Cranbury School after their school closed.[10]
In 1922, a North wing was added to the Cranbury School building, bringing enrollment to 200 students.[10]
In 1924, the Cranbury Library moved into the Cranbury School building[11] The Cranbury Public Library moved into a temporary building outside of the school in 2020. [12]
The school building received additions in 1949, 1957, and 1967.
The Old Cranbury School was added to the National Register of Historic Places on June 21, 1971 for its significance in architecture and education. It is a two story brick building and features a cupola with the school bell and a clock facing Main Street.[13]
In 1969, a new school replaced the old facility. The new facility received an addition in 1997. On October 14, 2001, the old school building was rededicated as Cranbury Township's town hall.[10] The old school building also houses the Cranbury Township Board of education offices and the Gourgaud Gallery, an art gallery.[14]
Cranbury students had attended Hightstown High School and then Lawrence High School before the relationship was established with Princeton.[15]
