Blackstone Elementary School

We are committed to renovating facilities at the Blackstone School, including improving building systems, and interior and exterior spaces and supporting the sustainability of the 6th grade, which was added in 2022. The Blackstone was not invited into the Massachusetts School Building Authority’s Core program in 2022, but there is $20 million in the FY24 Capital Plan to begin a study and a design for major renovations to the building. The Capital Plan includes a commitment to a design study that will lead to recommendations for a renovated or new Blackstone School building. The work of creating a vision for a renovated Blackstone will be the shared work of families, students, staff and community stakeholders in partnership with BPS and the City.
