The George E. Burgess School is a historic former school building in Berlin, New Hampshire. The large brick structure was built in 1905 as a public school, and is a well-preserved example of an early 20th-century public school building. It was closed when Berlin's school enrollment declined during the Great Depression, and was leased to the local Roman Catholic diocese in 1942, which opened it as the Notre Dame High School, the first high school available to Berlin's students. It was sold to the diocese in 1946, enlarged in 1949, and operated until 1972. It was converted to senior housing in the 2010s.[2]
The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2015.[1]
