Mercer High School 

 

Mercer High School, photographed in 1937. Click to enlarge photograph.

 

The building was constructed about 1904-05.  The Twentieth Century History of Mercer County, 1909, states, "After the erection of the handsome modern schoolhouse a few years ago, the schools were moved to this building.  A recent report of S. R. Craig, the principal, gives an enrollment for the borough of about four hundred."
