Wellesley School Committee approves end-of-year consent agenda including international field trips. Voting 5-0, the committee authorized field trips to London, York, Edinburgh, and Quebec City for 2026-27, with Illana Nissenbaum moving and Costas Panagopoulos seconding approval. Superintendent David Lussier's staff detailed major initiatives: the district won a $1 million state Climate Leader Grant for solar installations at Hunnewell and Hardy schools with tentative fall installation, and the Evolutions Program will not run in 2026-27 due to enrollment of only 12 students, with WHS Principal Jamie Chisum citing staffing concerns.
