  • Lincolnsudbury Regional School District Residency Policy
    Lincoln­Sudbury Regional High School 390 Lincoln Road Sudbury, MA 01776 LINCOLN­SUDBURY REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT RESIDENCY POLICY The Lincoln­Sudbury Regional School Committee feels that students best flourish in a supportive school environment that is in concert with an equally supportive home environment. With the exception of rare and unique circumstances, a student’s residence is the home where his or her parent(s) or legal guardian(s) reside. In circumstances where parents or guardians live separately and custody is shared, or another arrangement exists, one guideline that the Superintendent/Principal will use in any residence consideration is whether or not the district is the principal location of the student’s domestic, social and civil life. In order to attend Lincoln­Sudbury Regional High School, a student must be a resident dependent, with his/her parent(s) or legal guardian(s), of either the Town of Lincoln or the Town of Sudbury as defined in MA General Law Chapter 76, Section 5 or qualify in accordance with one of the following exceptions: o A student participating in the METCO Program o A student participating in the Student Exchange Program o A student whose parent or legal guardian is an employee of Lincoln­Sudbury Regional School District (teacher, administrator, clerical, educational support or buildings & grounds) who works a minimum of 20 hours per week and who would also be eligible for such benefits as health insurance. o A student whose parent or legal guardian is an employee of the Lincoln or Sudbury Public Schools, provided that said school districts have a policy which provides dependent children of Lincoln­Sudbury Regional School District employees equivalent access and said policy is implemented in the same manner as this policy is implemented.
