Marathon School Playgrounds Closed for Safety
Dear Hopkinton Community,
Please be advised that the playgrounds and parking lot at Marathon Elementary will be closed until mid-July to ensure children’s safety while we continue to receive furniture deliveries, complete punch list tasks, and transport truckloads of materials from Center School as well as from the Integrated Preschool housed at Elmwood. Essentially, the Marathon site remains very active; therefore, the playgrounds must be closed to the public.
