The Marion School Committee governs Sippican School, while Union 55 and Old Rochester joint bodies handle shared and secondary matters.

Marion agendas cover Sippican's budget, school choice, handbook, school-improvement plan, leases, and labor agreements.

Joint committees handle districtwide policy, professional development, superintendent evaluation, and shared administration.

Nineteen official postings represent fifteen held meetings or hearings after grouping same-day records and excluding one cancellation.

The useful record begins in January 2026 and is agenda-only, so many vote outcomes are not established.

This overview uses the official Marion municipal archive and related joint Union 55 postings available for 2026.

We read every agenda, packet, and set of minutes, and write up the decisions that affect families — each one linked to the document it came from.
