Chapel Hill – Chauncy Hall School (CH-CH) is an independent college preparatory school for grades 9 through 12 located in Waltham, Massachusetts and founded in 1828.
History
Chapel Hill-Chauncy Hall’s history involves three schools: Chauncy Hall, Chapel Hill, and the Huntington School. Chapel Hill, a school for girls founded in 1860 in Waltham on the current campus, and Chauncy Hall, a Boston day school for boys founded in 1828, merged in 1971 to create Chapel Hill-Chauncy Hall.[1]
To the merger, Chapel Hill brought its strength in humanities and the arts, and Chauncy Hall brought its strength in the fields of science and math. In 1974, Chapel Hill-Chauncy Hall incorporated the Huntington School, a Boston school for boys founded in 1909.
