Join town officials and project leaders as they come together to host two joint forums on the projects coming before the community this Spring: The Killam School Building Project and the Reading Center for Active Living (ReCAL) project.

The first forum will be held in-person on Wednesday, April 2 at 7pm at the RMHS Performing Arts Center.  The second forum will be held virtually on Zoom on Wednesday April 16 at 7pm.  

Both forums will cover the Killam School and ReCAL projects and the anticipated financial impact for residents.

See additional information about both projects here: https://www.readingma.gov/963/Improving-Reading.

Join us next Monday, February 3 2025, for another meeting, where we will discuss the design of the project and estimated project costs.

Don’t forget to mark your calendar for our third fall community meeting on Monday, December 9, where we’ll discuss sustainability!

Join the Killam School Building Committee for a community meeting on Wednesday, October 23rd at 7:00pm at the Reading Public Library. The Killam designers will present on the site and community use.

As part of the MSBA process, we have embarked on a visioning journey to reimagine Killam School. This collaboration involved students, teachers, parents, administrators, and volunteers who toured schools, observed life at Killam, and participated in workshops. With community feedback, the Killam School Building Committee developed the Educational Plan, a key MSBA requirement.

Killam School was built in 1969 and has never undergone a major renovation. Reading Public Schools applied for MSBA funding for Killam because the building is at the end of its useful life. Find out more about the need for a new elementary school through this short video.

On August 14th, hear from the team on the preferred design solutions and see what the future could hold for the Killam School!

Did you know that the Killam School Building Project officially kicked off in 2022 when the Killam School was one of only 17 schools accepted into the Massachusetts School Building Authority’s (MSBA) process? Learn more about the process in this short video!

Join us at 7pm on Wednesday August 14 at the Reading Public Library to hear from the KSBP team on the preferred design solutions and see what the future could hold for the Killam School.

The community will have the opportunity to review and provide feedback on the preferred solution with cost estimate.
