As one student put it: "If you don't know how you're gonna get home, you don't really wanna participate." It isn't enough to have an equity policy if the logistics of the school day actively prevent students from engaging. #LSRSD #LincolnSudbury https://meetingwatch.org/ma/lincoln-sudbury-rsd/ls-school-committee/2026-04-08/

Longer-form draft.
During the Lincoln-Sudbury Regional School Committee meeting on April 8, a significant gap was identified between the district's stated equity values and the actual lived experience of METCO students. While the committee discussed the successes of the METCO program, the conversation shifted to serious logistical and financial barriers. Specifically, students from Boston are facing challenges with transportation for after-school activities and high costs for exchange programs. As one student pointed out during the meeting, if a student doesn't have a guaranteed way to get home, they cannot participate in the extracurricular activities that define the school experience. One committee member phrased the issue pointedly: "I'm really thinking about, what we say we value, then to a degree, do we act on that?" As residents, we need to look beyond the district's mission statements and ask how the budget and scheduling decisions are actually being implemented to ensure all students have equal access to the full range of L-S opportunities. https://meetingwatch.org/ma/lincoln-sudbury-rsd/ls-school-committee/2026-04-08/ #MeetingWatch #LincolnSudburyRsdMA
