Neighborhood

As Boston's urban center expands outward, South Brookline remains one of the few truly green spaces in the greater Boston area. Known for rolling hills and large estates, a trip through the neighborhood reminds visitors of an earlier, more peaceful New England. This rural ambiance exists just a short drive from Boston proper, making South Brookline a popular location for family-minded professionals who commute into the city, yet still enjoy the family benefits of the top-rated Brookline school system.

School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
