Lincoln H. Akerman School is a kindergarten through 8th grade elementary school and middle school in Hampton Falls, New Hampshire, on the Eastern seaboard of the United States. In the school-year 2008-9, 275 students attended the school. ==History== The original elementary school in the area was the East School, which had been founded around the time of the Civil War, but burned down in 1947 when its furnace exploded. While a new school was being built, students had to travel to the next town of Seabrook, New Hampshire to attend school. The new school was finally completed in 1949, and named after Lincoln Akerman (1916–1942), a local war hero and member of the prominent New Hampshire Akerman family. Akerman was the first Hampton Falls soldier reported to lose his life in World War II. Another famous Akerman from the area was Amos T. Akerman (1821–1880), United States Attorney General from 1870-1871. In 1993, Kindergarten was added to the school, though it is not required in the state of New Hampshire. In the mid-1990s Dan Brown, best-selling author of ''The Da Vinci Code'', taught Spanish to the school's 6th, 7th, and 8th graders. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lincoln Akerman School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
