Meet your newest Marlborough School Committee member!
Newly appointed school committee member Chris DeMeo is the son of a career teacher and comes from a family of educators. For Chris, finding and doing what's most important is what life is all about.

Now, as he takes on this new role on the Marlborough School Committee, his focus will be on ensuring that every Marlborough kid and family is served and educated with enthusiasm, integrity and authenticity, and nothing less. Chris will serve until December 2027, the remainder of the unexpired term left by the untimely passing of Heidi Matthews.

Dear Marlborough Public Schools Staff and Families,
On Friday evening, the Central Mass. Mosquito Control will be spraying all outdoor school areas including all school fields and playgrounds. They will be spraying ZENIVEX E4 ULV, which is a synthetic pyrethroid that is used to control adult mosquitoes. Notices are also being posted on each school building.
Although EEE has not been found in Marlborough at this time, the city is taking this step to protect students, families, staff, and community members.
Regards,
Mary Murphy
Superintendent
