Norton Center School
Prior to 1902, Norton did not have a high school. Any student desiring a high school education had to go out of town with Norton paying the tuition. In 1902, the town constructed a four-classroom school on land donated by Mrs. Evan Wheaton. Three of the rooms were elementary and the fourth room functioned as a high school. In 1915, the town voted to erect additions to both ends of the school. The first floor housed the grammar school while the second floor contained the high school. In 1966, the school building was razed. The Norton Historical Society's third schoolhouse now stands on this site.
