The Cameron Senior Center was proud to graduate our first class through the regional “Bridging the Digital Divide” grant program. This subaward is funded through the Massachusetts Broadband Institute in partnership with the Northern Middlesex Council of Governments and UMass Lowell.

Our class of twelve students completed a nine-module curriculum covering topics ranging from Getting Started with a Chromebook and Google Drive and Online Storage to Internet Basics, Safety, and Privacy.

We look forward to our second class, being held at Mystery Spring in the Helena Crocker Community Room, completing its curriculum in September. All successful graduates receive a free Chromebook as part of this regional funding award.

A special thank-you goes to our fantastic UMass Lowell instructors, Jay Satorla and Bobbie Frigon, as well as Renee Hunsberger, Regional Coordinator for Bridging the Digital Divide; Dr. Carol McDonough, Program Director and Principal Investigator for Bridging the Digital Divide; and Isabelle Emmette of the Northern Middlesex Council of Governments.

Tuesday, September 1, 2026, marks the first day of school for sixth and ninth graders within the Westford Public Schools system as they will be attending their new schools for orientation. On Wednesday, September 2, 2026, the remainder of all grades within the Westford Public Schools system will begin at their respective times. With the beginning of school, there will be a significant increase in vehicular, bus, and pedestrian traffic around the schools throughout town. When travelling throughout town during the morning and afternoon hours, especially around the schools, please use extra caution and be cautious of buses stopping to pick up or drop off students. Please note that the Boston Road detour will not affect bus routes.

As a reminder, the entire length of Patten Road is always a twenty-five mile-per-hour speed limit zone, so when travelling to and from Westford Academy please be cautious of your speed and be aware of the school zone as well. Thank you. We wish all students a happy and safe 2026-2027 school year!
