Description
The history of Concord School goes back to 1840 when the first school was built in the rear of the old Concord Church on Brownsville Road. The building shown in the photograph was erected in 1906 when the new borough of Carrick withdrew from Baldwin Township. This building, located on Carrick Avenue, had six classrooms and an auditorium. The total cost for the structure was $35,000, which included $24,500 for the building, $6,000 for the lot, and $500 for the bell. In 1927 Concord became a Pittsburgh public school when Carrick was annexed to the city. The school was closed in 1936.
