message: Needed to point out this is an Exam School and students must take ISEE/SSAT in order to get in. "In The News" is not political natural, because every students signed a paper at beginning of each year to promise not to wear inappropriate clothing to school at any time. This should be pointed out in the "In The News"
The school is actually located in Dorchester, not Roxbury. I made the appropriate change.
No, the school is in Roxbury, not Dorchester, and I changed it back. Both Warren st and Humbolt ave are in the heart of Roxbury, and always have been. This area was the heart of Jewish Roxbury in the early 20th century. The border between Roxbury and Dorchester is to the east of Blue Hill ave, many blocks from this building. 
I went to Boston Tech in the early 1970s (same building), and they tried to tell us the building was in Dorchester back then too. This was done so that the school wouldn't get a bad reputation for being in a 'bad neighborhood.' 
I recommend at look at the old maps of Roxbury and Dorchester on the Boston Public Library web site.

message: The infobox would benefit from a logo, but I can't find one anywhere on the school site.  If someone uploads one, or simply adds a pointer to it here, I can take care of the details, including writing a Fair Use rationale.  The latter is probably why the previously uploaded logo was deleted. —johndburger 16:55, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
