Salisbury High School

Salisbury High School was built in 1904 and attached to the Graded School built in 1881.  It was the second high school in the state.  In 1926, Boyden High School was built on Lincolnton Road and was named for Col. Archibald Henderson Boyden who was a public servant, educator, and mayor of Salisbury.  In 1969, the school merged with Price High School and in 1970 the name once again became Salisbury High School.
