HISTORY NEAR OUR HOME

Located just north of Medford Square, Old Medford High is part of a Historic District that features:

Chevalier Theater  - We are honored to be good neighbors with the Chevalier Theater and Gene Mack Gym, once the auditorium for the high school.  It is run by Medford and has many singular features.   Many of our residents enjoy the nearby year-round and seasonal events in this fully restored civic amenity.

World War I Memorial - This monument which graces the front of our property was constructed in the 50's and is dedicated to Medford's residents who served in World War I.  Old Medford High proudly performs ordinary maintenance for the monument as part of our charter with Medford.

Ed Markey's Congessional District Office  -  Located in the "Jingle Bells" building (it's true - the song Jingle Bells was composed here).
