The Malvern School was built in 1896 and students began using the building in 1897. It built on a hill facing Southbridge St. It was originally a four room schoolhouse and then expanded in 1907 creating a Beaux Arts scheme. It was designed by a local firm Fuller and Delano. At the time it was built, Worcester was experiencing a rapid expansion. IN 1897 there was 6 separate new schools were occupied and 3 more under construction.
