Beverly High
Beverly is a coastal city on Massachusetts' North Shore, about 20 miles northeast of Boston, with a rich maritime history dating back to its founding in 1626. The city features a mix of historic neighborhoods, beaches along Beverly Harbor, and a downtown area that has maintained much of its colonial character. Beverly is known for being the birthplace of the U.S. Navy—the first armed vessel commissioned by the Continental Congress, the schooner Hannah, sailed from Beverly Harbor in 1775.
