JQUS Breaks Ground
On Tuesday, June 15, 2022, the Josiah Quincy Upper School in Boston’s Chinatown celebrated its ground breaking ceremony. The project is significant to the JQUS community and the City of Boston, and this project has been in planning for over a decade. The new school will offer future students a 21st century learning environment with facilities for challenging, research based programming.  Currently, students at the existing JQUS are distributed between two buildings: one on Arlington Street that was built in 1912, and a pre cast concrete annex building on Washington Street that was built in the 1990’s. These two facilities house over 500 students in grades 6-12.
