Edward Devotion School
The Edward Devotion Elementary School, affectionately known as "Devo," (which tends to confuse a lot of people) is a public elementary school located at 345 Harvard Street, Brookline, Massachusetts, USA. The school was founded in 1894 on land bequeathed to the town by Edward Devotion (1667–1744) and is probably named for his eponymous grandfather (1621–1685),〔(Biographical entry )〕 the constable for what was then Muddy River around 1650. Devotion's 17th-century house〔(House website )〕 is preserved by the Brookline Historical Society〔(Brookline Historical Society ) website〕 and stands amidst part of its original gardens in the school's forecourt.
The school was attended by John F. Kennedy from kindergarten in 1922 to third grade.
==Demographics==
The school is attended by over 800 students from pre-kindergarten to eighth grade, drawn primarily from the Coolidge Corner neighborhood, and is the largest of eight public elementary schools in Brookline. The school emphasizes diversity, featuring Hebrew language and Societal and Behavioural Special Education programs, and English as a second language to one third of the student body. Approximately 28 languages are spoken at the school. Parents are "encouraged to share their cultural traditions in the classroom."
