Archives Closed Schools N-P: Overhill Street School

Last Address: Overhill near Broadway

Year Opened: 1878

Year Closed: 1910

Overhill's location was near Underhill Street.  The school closed in 1910 and the school board planned to renovate it for use by the Eastern Girls High School. These plans were scrapped when the building was damaged by fire during renovation. After it was repaired and remodeled, the school became the Eastern Departmental School on Rubel Avenue, the new name of Overhill Street.  The building later housed Eastern Junior High and the Rubel Avenue Elementary School.
