The Nashoba Regional School District's School Committee meeting on April 30, 2025, focused primarily on the future of the school choice program. The committee discussed two options regarding participation in the program, which allows students to attend schools outside their designated districts.

The first option presented was to partially open the school choice program. This would involve withdrawing from certain grade levels while still allowing participation in others. The committee was encouraged to make a motion to approve this option, which would simplify the process for the upcoming school year.

The second option was to withdraw entirely from the school choice program. If this option were chosen, the district would not participate in school choice at all.

If the committee decides to proceed with the first option, applications for school choice will open on May 2, 2025, with a submission deadline of May 29, 2025, at noon. Should a public lottery be necessary, it will take place on May 30, 2025, at 10:00 AM in the School Committee Room located at 50 Mechanic Street in Bolton. Any applications received after the lottery deadline will be processed on a first-come, first-served basis, provided there are available seats. However, no applications will be accepted after June 26, 2025, to allow for proper planning for the next school year.

The meeting concluded with an invitation for questions from attendees, indicating an open line of communication for community members regarding the school choice program.
