The Rockport School Committee is comprised of five members who share an interest in promoting and bettering the public education system in the town of Rockport, Massachusetts.
 
As defined by Mass General Law Chapter 71 Section 39, our primary responsibilities include:
 
  • Setting and maintaining policy for the Rockport Public School District.
  • Overseeing and approving the annual budget for the school district, and acting as the employer for collective bargaining.
  • Hiring the Superintendent to run the school district and annually evaluating the Superintendent’s performance
 
We are advocates of public education and support the core values of the Rockport Public School District while providing direction for the on-going development of the school system.
