The Carter Building is named after legendary MBA Headmaster Francis E. ("Nick") Carter, who led the school from 1957 until 1979. An original outbuilding of the Totomoi estate, this structure was remodeled into classrooms and an assembly/study hall early in the school's history on this site and was known as "Old Science." In 1982 the building was extensively renovated by the addition of a new stairwell and entry on the west side and dedicated to the memory of Mr. Carter. In 1999 the building was demolished and replaced with a larger building containing 12 classrooms on the 2nd and 3rd floors, with the ground floor given over to the Academic Records Office, College Counseling Office, Guidance Counseling Office, and Wilson Commons. The new building, made possible through the generosity of Mr. David K. Wilson and family, was dedicated to the memory of Mr. Carter in October of 2000.
