School Committee endorses Richard School site for new building project

MARLBOROUGH -- October 6, 2025, Marlborough School Committee unanimously endorses Richard School site for new building project. Meeting in City Council Chambers on Monday, the committee took up a single agenda item and voted without discussion to back the Marlborough-Richard School Building Committee's preferred schematic option, designated NC2A, which keeps the new facility on the existing Richard School site. The chair said the endorsement followed "countless meetings" of site analysis and noted the City Council was set to consider the same recommendation later that evening. The session was called to order at 6:45 p.m. and adjourned at 6:47 p.m. No cost figures, design details or construction timeline were discussed.
