When Wish School was on Barbour Street, it was on the memorial site of the 1944 Hartford Circus Fire. On July 6, 1944, a fire broke out during a performance of the Ringling Bros., Barnum & Bailey Circus causing an estimated 168 deaths and hundreds of injuries. A memorial to those lost was dedicated in 2005 in a park behind the school.
