The Colonial Revival style former Faolin Pierce Elementary School was built in 1916. The symmetrical one story high brick and stone building has a Mansard metal roof in the center and gable roofs on the side wings. (visit link)

In 1983 the school was closed by the Agawam School Committee due to declining enrollments. The then Police Chief Stanley J. Chmielewski strongly supported using Peirce School as a new police station. Renovation were made and in 1987 the police department moved from the Town Hall into its new headquarters.
