Lower school students posed with their teacher outside of the Goodnow Memorial Building in Princeton, Massachusetts in the Fall of 1886. The Goodnow Memorial Building was originally designed to house the town school and library by noted architect Stephen Earle. Divided into two halves, the school was located on the west and the library on the east. The Goodnow Memorial Building housed the school from 1891 to 1906 when the Princeton Center School opened. The Lower School was located on the main floor (currently the Children's Room of the Princeton Public Library). The Upper School was located on the second floor (currently the Reference Room of the Princeton Public Library).
