The Massachusetts School Building Authority ("MSBA") is a quasi-independent government authority created to reform the process of funding capital improvement projects in the Commonwealth’s public schools. The MSBA strives to work with local communities to create affordable, sustainable, and energy efficient schools across Massachusetts.
As a School Building Committee, we have taken the time to understand the process of regionalization with the support of experts from the Massachusetts Association of Regional Schools (M.A.R.S.) consulting group and why this path is NOT our recommendation to the West Boylston community at this time. The timeline for regionalization, transfer of assets, lack of assurances in educational model, and loss of our town's identity (The Lions) are some of the reasons why we feel a new school project will best serve our community's future.
