ATTENTION: The date of the Annual School District Meeting has changed! It will now be held on Saturday, March 15th at 9am in the Hopkinton Middle High School gymnasium.

We are so sorry for the change in date, which was due to the Budget Committee inadvertently scheduling the Hearing a day late. This then left our meeting a day too early to comply with the time required between the budget hearing and the annual meeting. (We looked through all solutions before we made this []()change, but unfortunately, it couldn't be avoided.)
