Changes in Pierce County School Districts Since their Inception

Researched and Collected by Janet Nixon Baccus

Many Pierce County (Washington) researchers are baffled by changes that have taken place in county school districts over the years. Often school names simply disappear from the location where they were first found, and it becomes difficult to trace an ancestor's progress through the time periods of consolidations. The valuable index (in its entirety below) details those changes in order to help you research your Pierce County ancestor.

The school records for some of the schools listed below and the original information for this index can be found at:
