  • Nathaniel Graniss, an early area settler, felt there was need for a school in the area, and deeded land where a school was built in 1808. The building was renovated into a church in 1830, and school rooms were relegated to the basement. The church moved down the street to occupy a different building in 1864, and the building was once again utilized entirely as a school. The facility was then named after Theodore Dwight Woolsey. In 1873, another school was constructed on Woolsey Street, taking up the Woolsey School name. The original building was then renamed Grand Street School or Fair Haven School. A new building replaced the old one in 1895 and was renamed the Horace H. Strong School after a Warden for Fair Haven and member of the Fair Haven Board of Education. The building burned down on January 27, 1914.
