The Bromfield High School
Harvard is a quiet, affluent suburban town in north-central Massachusetts, about 25 miles northwest of Boston. Known for its rural character and strong conservation ethos, the town features historic apple orchards, working farms, and more than 3,000 acres of protected open space. The Bromfield School, which serves as the town's combined middle and high school, is named after prominent 18th-century Harvard resident Margaret Bromfield, who left funds in her will to support education in the community.
