Brebeuf was opened in 1962 and was named in honor of St. Jean de Brébeuf, a 17th century North American Jesuit martyr. The school was initially limited to male students, but in 1976 Brebeuf became coeducational.

Famous quotes containing the word school:
“I wish to speak a word for Nature, for absolute freedom and wildness, as contrasted with a freedom and culture merely civil,—to regard man as an inhabitant, or a part and parcel of Nature, rather than as a member of society. I wish to make an extreme statement, if so I may make an emphatic one, for there are enough champions of civilization: the minister and the school committee and every one of you will take care of that.”
—Henry David David (1817–1862)
