Education in the Foxborough Public School and its governing process
To better understand how the Spillane School Committee leadership functioned, we reviewed all of the motions and votes documented in the Committee minutes from May 19, 2003, to December 18, 2006. (Please visit the Document Repository to review individual minutes for 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006.)
We found 128 meetings, of which five we could not secure […]
Yes, that WAS an interesting photo. I wonder what they were laughing about? Selectman Hickey certainly seemed to be among friends. My question is: How close is Hickey to the Krafts? Are they in business in any way? It bears closer scrutiny. Remember the ticket incident?

Fake ID’s, underage drinking, teenage wasteland has been a right of passage since I can remember. The problem […]
Last Thursday, July 12, we sent a reminder about a School Committee meeting for Policy Manual review. In the message, we included the following text:
Quote:
We learned today, through The Foxboro Reporter, that our town continues to find more evidence of acts of bullying and hate crimes. These are additional signs of on-going problems that have […]
Safety first, always
The editorial in our local periodical again pointed towards what is desirable.

So my basic question here is, what makes you believe that this town is flawed?
Though the question was not posed to me, I would like to add my answer. Our Town has many good aspects which I would like to share. Following that, a news story from Russia may help to illuminate what I […]
