Pearl River School District Archives & Alumni Information

Pearl River School District Archives Mission Statement:  Established in 1993, under the auspices of the Pearl River Alumni Association, to collect and preserve artifacts and archival materials relating to the Pearl River School District.  These materials are available to all interested parties for research, education, and exhibition.

Our entire archives of articles, photos, yearbooks, memorabilia, etc. of students and activities that encompass the district's long history are maintained by a group of volunteers.  These retired teachers, graduates, and parents of the Pearl River School District offer a few hours each month to assemble and organize diverse materials into a structured collection of chronicles. 

If your class or organization is in need of copies of historical items pertaining to the Pearl River School District community, please contact our Community Services Office.  We encourage as long a lead-time as possible, as the research process can be time-consuming. The district also has a graduating class banner that can be borrowed and adjusted for your class.  See more information about reunions by scrolling down this page.

Cleaning out an attic or basement?  We also welcome suitable donations to our archives!
