More About Newton South High School
Located in Newton Center, Newton South High School is one of two public high schools in Newton, with the other being Newton North High School in Newtonville. Most students that attend Newton South come from Brown and Oak Hill Middle Schools which are located just on the other side of the high school's athletic fields.
Students at the school have access to a wide range of AP courses and electives, preparing them for a life of higher education and success after high school. The student body is broken up into four "houses" -- Goldrick House, Goodwin House, Cutler House and Wheeler House -- each with its own housemaster, secretary and guidance counselors.
Newton South High School is a half-mile walk to the #52 bus, which stops at the intersection of Parker Street and Roosevelt Road.
