School Committees · Meeting of February 24, 2026

Dover and Sherborn School Committees vote to shift elementary Spanish program to exploratory model. The Sherborn committee unanimously approved the measure; the Dover committee voted 3 to 2 in favor following a revote after Martha Castle joined the meeting, with Goli Sepehr and Kate Cook voting against both times. Two parents offered public comment urging retention of the FLES program.

The committees also discussed a bus camera pilot program on four buses and deferred a decision on the 2026-27 early release day schedule, with the Administration recommending status quo to expedite calendar publication.
