School Committee Information

The Narragansett Regional School Committee is comprised of eight members, five from the Town of Templeton and three from the town of Phillipston.

The School Committee uses the vision provided by the Districts’ mission statement and core values, as well as the District Strategic Plan, to guide our decisions as we work to support the Districts’ Goals.

The responsibilities of the School Committees are:

  • To appoint and evaluate the Superintendent

  • To review, approve, and monitor the district budget

  • To establish and maintain district policies consistent with the requirements of Massachusetts General Law and statewide standards established by the Massachusetts Board of Education

The NRSD School Committee typically meets on the first and third Wednesday of each month. Additional meetings or joint sessions are scheduled as needed. Meetings are live-streamed and are also available on the NRSD YouTube channel.
