Nashoba Regional School District approves $79.2 million FY27 operating budget

On March 11, 2026, the Nashoba Regional School District school committee voted unanimously to adopt the district's FY27 operating budget of $79,196,135.

Assistant Superintendent Ross McCarron told the committee the budget before members “continues the work of our strategic plan and moving our district forward,” saying the proposal is the result of a collaborative, deliberate process focused on students. The committee chair then moved to approve the budget; the motion passed with all members in favor.

McCarron also told the committee that the district has posted a food-services request for proposals. He said the RFP process requires state review and that, if the procurement proceeds on schedule, a contract recommendation will likely be presented to the committee in April for consideration.

Committee remarks during the meeting emphasized gratitude for staff work on the budget and the months of deliberations that led to the proposal. Members did not request additional budget changes at the March 11 meeting.

Next procedural steps flagged at the meeting include continuing procurement work for food services and routine subcommittee work (including a planned review of solar options for the new high school and the superintendent evaluation timeline).
