Description
The Bayard School was named in honor of the Bayard Family, early landowners in the Pittsburgh area whose farm extended from what are now Forty-Second Street to Fiftieth Street and Penn Avenue to the Allegheny River. A one-room schoolhouse originally sat on the site of the Bayard School. From 1869 to 1874 the building served as an annex for the Washington School, however, when Washington reached its enrollment limit, Bayard was officially organized on September 5, 1874. The school, located at Hatfield Street near 48th Street in Pittsburgh’s Lawrenceville neighborhood, closed in 1939.
