Location
Beacon Street is home to The Newman School Dorm Hall - just a 2-minute walk from our classroom buildings.
Nestled in The Back Bay - one of Boston's most desirable neighborhoods.
Students become one with the local community - walking to Newbury Street for lunch, running the Esplanade for cross-country practice, or performing at the Boston Conservatory Theater for recitals.
Cleaning
We expect Newman students to do their part in keeping our dorm hall organized and clean.
With that being said, a cleaning service will be provided by Newman to change linens, clean towels, and take out the trash.
Newman provides opportunity for students from broadly diverse backgrounds to pursue serious studies in a welcoming and supportive environment where self and community are paramount.
