High School and Meetings

If you're a parent of a Gorman Fort Banks Elementary student, your family is going to be directly impacted by the choices of the Winthrop School Building Assistance Committee. They are working with the community to determine what kind of development plan will be taken for the High School and possibly the Middle School. It is critical that members of the community make their thoughts known. Please take a moment to take their survey.

Our next PTO meeting is Wednesday, December 12 at 6:30 pm in the school cafeteria. The agenda is coming soon!

Also, the next School Committee meeting is Thursday, December 13 at 7:30 pm.  Click here for the agenda.
