Haverford High School

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Haverford High School is the public high school of Haverford Township, Pennsylvania, United States, operated by the School District of Haverford Township. It is at 200 Mill Road in Havertown. The school serves the entirety of Haverford Township, including all of the unincorporated community of "Havertown" (a place name created by the US Postal Service to designate ZIP Code 19083, which is wholly within Haverford Township), and the Haverford Township portions of the unincorporated communities of Haverford, Bryn Mawr, Ardmore, Drexel Hill, and Wynnewood. All five School District of Haverford Township elementary schools feed into the middle school, which feeds into HHS.

Haverford High operates WHHS, the first high school FM broadcast radio station in the United States.[1][2]

[edit] History

The current building was established in 1956; it was expanded and modernized in 1999. The high school, founded in 1928, was co-located until 1956 with the nearby Haverford Middle School, formerly the Haverford Junior High School. [3]
