Holliston Opens School Committee Seat Applications; Habitat for Humanity Seeks Affordable-Home Candidates

Holliston is seeking applicants for an open School Committee seat while Habitat for Humanity simultaneously opens applications for an affordable home in town. The twin civic notices arrive as Holliston Public Schools enters a five-day sprint of end-of-year events, including the Integrat…

The town is actively recruiting a resident to fill a vacant School Committee seat, and Habitat for Humanity has opened applications for an affordable home in Holliston, two civic opportunities landing simultaneously as the school district heads into a stretch of year-end celebrations.

TOWN HALL

Applications are now open for a seat on the Holliston School Committee, according to the town's website. The posting appears alongside a separate notice that Habitat for Humanity is accepting applications for an affordable home in town, a relatively rare housing opportunity for income-qualifying Holliston families. The town is also looking for volunteers for the Policy Advisory Committee, which supports town governance work; interested residents can find details at townofholliston.us.

SCHOOLS

Holliston Public Schools has a three-event sprint coming up next week. Grade 2 and Montessori students hold their Field Day on Monday, June 16, from 8:30 to 10 a.m., with June 17 posted as the rain date. That same Wednesday, the Integrated Preschool Concert and Art Show runs as an all-day event. On Thursday, June 18, eighth graders mark the milestone with an 8th Grade Celebration from 6 to 8 p.m.

COMMUNITY & ARTS

Holliston Public Library will be closed Friday, June 19, in observance of Juneteenth, with regular hours in place the rest of that week. Digital collections, including Libby for e-books and audiobooks, Kanopy for streaming film, and Hoopla for a mix of digital formats, remain available around the clock regardless of building hours.
