MSBA school building projects since 2009
Every project the Massachusetts School Building Authority has funded or invited since 2009: new and renovated schools (the Core Program) plus roof, window, boiler and energy repairs (the Accelerated and Green Repair programs). What each cost, how much the state paid, whether local voters approved a debt exclusion, and how long it took. Dollar figures are in 2026 dollars unless you switch to the amounts as approved.

How to read this
- Programs: Core projects build or renovate whole schools. Accelerated Repair projects replace roofs, windows, doors, boilers and heating systems. Green Repair was a 2009–2011 energy repair program. Use the program filter to look at one at a time.
- Vocational covers the regional vocational-technical and county agricultural schools. They serve many towns at once, so the Without switch removes them from every total, the map, the rankings and the table when you want to compare ordinary town and city school building.
- Applied is the year the district filed its Statement of Interest (the first four digits of the MSBA project ID). Invited is when the MSBA Board voted it into the program.
- Grant is the MSBA's maximum facilities grant approved with the project scope and budget; the final amount paid after audit can be lower. It is MSBA's latest published figure, which can differ slightly from the amount first approved by its Board. Repair programs publish no maximum grant, so for them it is what MSBA has paid plus what it may still pay (the final grant once audited). Repair projects have no approval date on record yet, so their 2026-dollar figures are adjusted from the year the district applied and are marked approximate.
- Removed projects were taken out of the MSBA pipeline by its Board, usually after a failed local vote or a district withdrawal. Their approved grants were never paid, so they are left out of the totals, the map and the cost averages, and shown struck through in the table.
- 2026 dollars adjust each project from the year its budget was approved using the Consumer Price Index (CPI-U, U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics). Construction costs rose faster than the CPI over this period, so older projects would cost more than this to build today.
- Map and town ranking: a regional district's grant is split among its member towns in proportion to population (2025 U.S. Census estimates), so one regional school doesn't credit every member town with the full amount. Per-resident figures divide each town's share by its population. Which towns a project serves comes from MSBA's own project lists. Hover a town to see the projects behind it.
- Timeline runs from the MSBA Board's invitation to the building opening. Averages only include projects where both dates are known, and each average shows how many projects it covers.
