Dublin School

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Dublin School is a preparatory private high school with a small student body. It is located in Dublin, New Hampshire at a high altitude, near Dublin Lake and Mount Monadnock. There are usually only about 130 students enrolled per year. Paul Lehmann founded the school in 1935, after he had searched for quite a while to find the ideal location to start a school. He had several requirements for the location, which were:

1. The location should not only be in New England, but preferably in southern New Hampshire.
2. The site must be on the east side of hilly land at a considerable elevation.
3. There should be a vast and extensive view.
4. There should be at least one substantial building.
5. There should be ample inexpensive, undeveloped, forested land and/or fields available for ultimate purchase and expansion.
6. The location should be near but not in the center of a non–industrial town or village.
7. A pond or lake should be available within the area as well as mountain ranges.
8. There should be no previous history of a school in the area, especially not the site selected.
