Somerville School Building Project Community Survey Responses

The City of Somerville is planning to build a new PK-8 school building to address the needs of the Winter Hill School. The City must decide whether to also address Brown School needs within this project and where the new school building should be located. Mayor Katjana Ballantyne convened a School Construction Advisory Group (CAG) made up of parents, elected officials, and other community members to develop a recommendation on these questions. To help inform this recommendation and the City’s decision, the City engaged DREAM Collaborative, an urban planning and architecture consulting firm, to work with members of the CAG to create a survey to gauge public opinion. The survey was open from August 7 to September 22, 2025. This dataset was prepared for analysis under the direction of DREAM Collaborative. For analysis and findings from this dataset, see DREAM Collaborative’s School Construction Advisory Group Summer 2025 Survey Results & Analysis report, linked below.
