Facts
Colton-Pierrepont has recently upgraded its facilities by building a new gymnasium, library, lobby, and band room as well as touching up its older parts. The facilities are now in good condition. A new school sign was generously donated by the Colton-Pierrepont Teachers' Association.
Colton is within 15 miles of four colleges: St. Lawrence University, Clarkson University, SUNY Canton, and SUNY Potsdam. All of them have offered out-of-school activities for students at Colton.
Important trips are the Foreign Language Club trip, the Senior Trip, and Project Adventure for 7th graders.

Famous quotes containing the word facts:
“Conventionalities are at length as bad as impurities. Even the facts of science may dust the mind by their dryness, unless they are in a sense effaced each morning, or rather rendered fertile by the dews of fresh and living truth.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Plain women he regarded as he did the other severe facts of life, to be faced with philosophy and investigated by science.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
“Science is facts. Just as houses are made of stones, so is science made of facts. But a pile of stones is not a house and a collection of facts is not necessarily science.”
—Jules Henri Poincare (1854–1912)
