July 2025 Update:
In March 2024, the Town of West Boylston submitted a Statement of Interest to the Massachusetts School Building Authority (MSBA) to propose the construction of a new West Boylston Middle High School.
At the December 2024 Board of Directors meeting, the MSBA voted to issue an invitation to the Town of West Boylston to enter an initial Eligibility Period for this project. The Eligibility Period will assist the MSBA with managing its financial resources by identifying early in the process whether West Boylston is ready to manage and fund a new school building project. The Eligibility Period window for West Boylston will open in June 2025 and conclude in February 2026. The MSBA has not yet approved a new school building project for the Town of West Boylston.
