Our Community - Our Schools, Community Conversations

The HWRSD would like to invite ALL community members to an open Community Conversation to share thoughts, perspectives, and ideas about the HWRSD Schools.

Jan 29th @ 7 PM @ HWRHS Library

One thing our community agrees on is clear: our elementary schools need significant improvements to better support our students and teachers.

This session is an opportunity for everyone, regardless of viewpoint, to be heard in a respectful and constructive environment. Together, we can begin shaping the next steps toward ensuring safe, modern, and inspiring schools for all children in our Hamilton-Wenham community. School Committee representatives will join the conversation to participate and hear from our community.

Join the HWRSD Strategic Planning Committee

Join us in a vital effort to shape the future of the Hamilton-Wenham Regional School District. We are beginning development of our 2026-2031 Strategic Plan, which will serve as our essential roadmap for the next five years, guiding our teaching, learning, facilities, and operations. Please fill out this brief FORM.

To be successful, the plan must reflect the collective values and areas where we, as a community, want to grow and improve. Our work will be centered on the Instructional Core—the interaction between the student, the teacher, and the content—while focusing on academic and social-emotional outcomes.

We are seeking a diverse, energetic group of volunteers to serve on the Strategic Planning Committee (SPC). This committee will be instrumental in analyzing our current context, envisioning our future, and drafting a plan that serves as our district’s "North Star."

Join the Conversation: State Education Funding

On February 5th at 6 PM, I will be joining Representative Bowen and members of surrounding communities as a panel member for a community conversation on state education funding.

Representative Bowen would like to focus this event on school funding, including: the Chapter 70 funding formula, the Fair Share Amendment's impact on K-12 education funding, funding for special education, and any potential avenues for new funding. We are open to other ideas for discussion as well! Come join the conversation, it will only be approximately 90 minutes!
