Nahant does not have a middle or high school. Students attend grades preschool through sixth at Johnson Elementary School in Nahant. For grades seven through twelve, students attend Swampscott Middle School (grades seven and eight) and Swampscott High School (grades nine through twelve).

Johnson Elementary School is currently undergoing a major renovation that has demolished the old first grade classrooms, and the southernmost wing of the building. Construction crews are currently creating a new wing complete with updated technology such as wiring for internet access and updated classrooms.

Points of interest

• Nahant Historical Society Museum, located in the Nahant Community Center
• The beaches. Practically an island, Nahant has no shortage on beaches, which is the main reason why many out-of-towners visit Nahant during the summer.
• Northeastern University, located at East Point, and home to Nahant's Observatory and Marine Science Center.
• The World War II Bunkers. Located inside Trimountain, and East Point, they were initially designed to defend Boston Harbor and the surrounding waters from a possible attack during the war. During the cold war, the installation at East Point housed Nike missiles intended to stop a nuclear attack on Boston. The facility at Trimountain was for "aiming" the missiles.
