History

19th century

Brookline High School was founded in the Spring of 1843. Instruction began on August 17, 1843, on the lower floor of the Town Hall on Walnut Street, which was described by a former student as a "dismal, damp and dark room...not unlike a tomb". [2] Benjamin H. Rhodes, a Brown University graduate, was the founding headmaster, serving until 1847. [2] Rhodes was succeed as headmaster by Hezekia Shailer who served until 1854. John Emory Horr, a Harvard College graduate, then served as headmaster for 33 years until 1888. [2] [3]

On November 3, 1856, the second Brookline High School location, a newly constructed two-story building on School Street designed by architect Joseph L. Richard, opened. [2]

In fall 1895, the third and present location of Brookline High School opened as Shailer Hall, a new three and a half story brick structure with a pitched roof designed by architects Andrews, Jaques and Rantoul. [4]

20th century

In September 1903, the Manual Arts building, which was built at a cost of $100,000 on Tappan Street, opened. The ninth grade moved from the School of Practical Arts in the elementary schools to the high school in September 1921, following an addition to the main building, which increased the capacity to 1500 students.

In 1965, the main building was expanded and remodeled at a cost of $1.5 million. [5]

The school has Symbolic Panels made by the sculptor John A. Wilson. [6]

21st century

In May 2018, Brookline voters supported a debt exclusion override to fund the expansion and renovation of Brookline High School. This building project included the construction of a new building at the 111 Cypress Street site, a new Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) building to replace the building at the corner of Tappan and Greenough Streets, renovations to the 3rd floor of the main building and the Tappan gymnasium, as well as improvements to Cypress Field. [7]

In early 2022, Brookline High School opened a new building on 22 Tappan Street, designed primarily to house freshmen. [8]

In 2020–21, 435 students took 797 AP exams, and 91.9% of students scored “3” or above on these exams.

[15] The rank was determined by the Challenge Index defined as the number of Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate or Cambridge tests taken in a year relative to the number of seniors who graduate. [15] [16] In 2020, the 5-year graduation rate was 96.5% with 86% of students planning to attend a 4-Year private or public college. [17] [18]

Boys cross country

In 2007, the Brookline High School boys cross country team won the first ever Nike Team Nationals northeast regional meet by just one point over Danbury High School in Bowdoin Park, New York. [24] They went on to place 7th at Nike Team Nationals in Portland, Oregon. [25] In addition to the 2007 campaign, in the 2006 and 2009 seasons the team placed 3rd at the Massachusetts Division 1 State Meet, in 2005 they finished 2nd, and on November 20, 2010, won their second state championship, giving them their fifth top three finish in six years and second 1st-place finish in four.

Girls crew

In 2022, Brookline High School athletes finished third in the women's under-17 fours at Head of the Charles. [27] Because the crew is not recognized as a school sport in the fall, the athletes rowed under the club name of Friends of Brookline Rowing, whose members are the same as those of the high school's spring rowing team.
