Neighborhood Meeting On High School Project, Bring Your Questions

WALTHAM, MA — The school committee is hosting a neighborhood meeting Wednesday, July 17 at the high school to discuss the high school project. Bring your questions and comments.

This meeting comes after the school committee and the school building community approved the Schematic Design to be submitted to the Massachusetts School Building Authority with a total budget of $377 million. The city is expected to have to pay for about $262 million of that, after an MSBA grant.

The Waltham City Council will need to approve the whole project before the MSBA meets August 28 to fund the nearly $118 million grant.

There's a special summer session meeting for the City Council on August 5. It begins at 7:30 p.m.
