The Hamilton-Wenham Regional School District invites all community members to a special forum on Wednesday, January 22, at 6:30 PM in the High School Auditorium. This event will provide an in-depth update on the proposed elementary school project, offering insights into the latest developments, current cost estimates, designs, 3D renderings, and detailed information about Massachusetts School Building Authority (MSBA) reimbursement rates.
This event will provide a clear vision of what the new facility could look like and how it aims to support the district's educational goals. This is a key opportunity for residents to learn about the project’s progress, cost, and ask to questions. The district values community feedback as part of its commitment to collaboration.
