Christian Industrial and Technical School
- Christian Industrial and Technical School
-
The Christian Industrial and Technical School in Winchester Park, Springfield, Massachusetts trained future missionaries in carpentry, blacksmithing, foundry work, typesetting, and bookbinding.[1] It was founded in 1887 by Daniel B. Wesson as an outgrowth of the School for Christian Workers; it was originally named the New England Industrial and Technological School, and changed its name in 1890.[2][3]
The school had a relationship with the Elektron Manufacturing Company.[4]
It changed its name to the Springfield Industrial Institute in 1895.[5]
It was discontinued in 1898, and its building was leased by the Mechanic Arts High School (Springfield, Massachusetts) (later called the Technical High School)[6] until it built its own building.
