The future of Boston Public Schools' buildings

12:06

Last week, Boston Public Schools released a long-anticipated "master plan" for school facilities in the city. The plan aims to address well-documented issues with Boston's school buildings, many of which were build before World War II, and decreasing enrollment. But, as WBUR education reporter Max Larkin explains on this episode of The Common, the plan is light on details. Many questions remain regarding how this plan will impact each of Boston's 119 schools — especially when it comes to closings and consolidations.
