Back to school: Framingham Public Schools Info.

Yes, it's nearly back-to-school time. The first day for Framingham Public Schools is Wed., August 29th (August 30th for kindergarten). Are you ready? Take a look at the school calendar to plan for vacations and conferences, double check bus routes, look at upcoming events, and even do a last check on summer reading assignments. Need to use a computer to check on the latest sales on backpacks and lunchboxes? Come upstairs at the Main Library or to the McAuliffe branch, and we'll be happy to help you.
