Thank you for Taking the New PK-8 School Building SurveyAs of Sept. 22 the New PK-8 School Building Survey is now closed. Thank you to all who participated. The results will be shared in late October at the next Construction Advisory Group meeting and through other City channels. See below from more information including upcoming and previous CAG meetings. |
Somerville’s next school building project will address the needs of the Winter Hill Community Innovation School and potentially the Brown School. Partnering with the Massachusetts School Building Authority (MSBA) offers the City and school district the potential to receive state funding to offset a significant portion (approximately 50%) of the cost of the project.
You can find a complete listing of previous meetings as well as accompanying documents (agendas, presentations, and video recordings) listed by meeting date here.
