The city is most known for being the epicenter of the Industrial Revolution and embracing modern manufacturing equipment before many other cities in the country. As the home of the first watch-making business that began to use assembly-line production, the city earned the nickname "Watch City," which has stuck around ever since. Today, several of Waltham's largest employers are educational facilities, and when not working, locals relax in the city's many scenic parks, visit the shops that align Moody Street, and travel just 10 miles east to Boston when they want a little more excitement.
The Waltham Public School System has just one secondary educational facility, which is Waltham High School. Waltham, MA, tutoring lets you receive private instruction, either in-home or online, for your classes at this high school or test prep today. There are several prestigious private high schools in the city, including Gann Academy, which is a Jewish high school; Chapel Hill College Preparatory Day and Boarding School; and Milestones Day School, which is a Special Education learning facility.
