Title:: The Doctor Franklin Perkins School and former Mrs. Iver Johnson estate
Description:: This elegant estate on North Main Street was built in 1910 as a country home for Mrs. Iver Johnson.

In 1934, the estate became the Dr. Franklin Perkins School, serving a wide range of clientele in a nurturing and homelike environment. The facility has been expanded several times over the years.
