Erasmus Hall High School, High school in Flatbush, Brooklyn, United States.

The educational complex features a Georgian-Federal style academy building surrounded by later Gothic structures forming an enclosed quadrangle on Flatbush Avenue.

Founded in 1786 as Erasmus Hall Academy, it became the first secondary school chartered by the New York State Regents with support from Aaron Burr and Alexander Hamilton.

The school transformed into five separate educational institutions in 1994, each focusing on different academic areas while maintaining the original architectural character.

Students enter through metal detectors at the rear entrance, sharing common facilities like the library, gymnasium, and auditorium within the educational campus.

Archaeological excavations in 1987 uncovered intact deposits from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries documenting the educational development at this location.
