Trustees endorsed the recommendations of the Final Report at the Business Services Steering Committee meeting on Monday, December 8, 2025. The decision was ratified at the Board Meeting on December 15, 2025.

The primary purpose of this Boundary Review was to establish an attendance area boundary for a new school, under construction at 605 Wesley Boulevard in the City of Cambridge. The school is scheduled to open in September 2026.

These changes will take effect beginning September 2026.
