Maynard High School (Massachusetts)

Public education in what is now Maynard dates back to at least 1757 when the town of Stow of which Maynard was then part, voted to create public school districts throughout the town, including the Northeast Corner District. The first school house in what later became Maynard was constructed in 1766; it still exists today at 101 Summer Street as part of a private home. The first high school was built on Nason Street when Maynard became a separate town in 1871.[4]
