Boston Public Schools has proposed consolidating two schools and closing a middle school as part of its next steps to implement a long-term facilities plan that will increase access to high-quality education.
The school committee will be asked to vote on the two closure proposals at its June 17 meeting. If approved, the closures – as well as grade reconfigurations – would go into effect for School Year 2025-26.The long-term facilities plan involves an annual cycle of proposals to allow time for meaningful community participation in developing transition plans over the course of a full school year, before closures or reconfigurations go into effect, according to the district.
In its presentation to the school committee, the district outlined specific milestones that they expect to reach over the next 12-18 months, saying these steps lay the foundation for the district's next set of facilities proposals so that families can have confidence in any transitions as additional reconfigurations, mergers, and closures are proposed.
“I’m incredibly proud to be a part of this important work happening across BPS to really put our students and communities first during this grade configuration process,” said Tanya M. Woodard, Principal of the Hennigan School.
