In 1800 a prominent Colchester farmer, Pierpont Bacon, died and left an endowment of thirty-five thousand dollars. The endowment was to the inhabitants of the First Society of Colchester for the purpose of supporting and maintaining a school "... for the instruction of Youth in Reading and writing English, in Arithmetic, Mathematics, and the Languages, or such other branches of Learning".
This established the academy that bears his name. Bacon Academy's doors opened to the children of Colchester on the first of November 1803 and from that point forward, has prepared many young men and women for the life that lay ahead.
