Main Street Intermediate School (Grades 5 To 6)
This school once was the high school, but became the intermediate school when the new high school was finished being built. It is located on East Main St. Main Street School serves all 5th and 6th grade students attending the Norwalk City Schools (about 250 per grade). The school is intended to be suited specifically to the academic and developmental needs of ten, eleven, and twelve-year-olds, and to serve as a transition from the elementary schools to the middle school - as well as from childhood to the brink of adolescence.
