The groundbreaking ceremony for the project was held in October 2012.[3]
In February 2013, a Special Town Meeting was held to approve an additional $5.7 million to complete the Bancroft School construction project.[4]
In October 2014, students, parents, school and town leaders, and state officials held a ribbon cutting ceremony to formally open the new Bancroft School.[5]
