History

The Brimmer School was founded in 1887 and the May School in 1880. In 1939, these two well-known Boston schools merged. The headmaster of The Brimmer School was Mabel Homer Cummings and the headmaster of Miss May's School was Miss Mary C.S. May, both of whom have buildings named after them on the current campus. In 1954, Brimmer and May moved to its current location in the Chestnut Hill neighborhood of Newton, near the Brookline city line. Brimmer and May became fully coeducational in 1992. [2]
