[edit] History
The campus used for the middle school in 2006 was built in the 1926s as Haverford Senior High School; the junior high school was established on the same campus in the 1930s. The post-World War II baby boom served as the catalyst for expansion of the schools in the district; in 1956, the new high school was constructed, leaving the middle school with all of the 1926 campus [3].
