Quabbin Regional School District

The Quabbin Regional School District (QRSD) covers western-central Worcester County, Massachusetts, primarily serving the towns of Barre, Hardwick, Hubbardston, New Braintree, and Oakham; however, QRSD participates in the Massachusetts Department of Education's Inter-District School Choice, which "allows families to enroll their children in schools in communities other than the city or town in which they reside." ^[5] The district consists of five elementary schools; the Ruggles Lane School (Barre), Hardwick Elementary School, Hubbardston Center School, New Braintree School, and Oakham Center School, and one combined middle and high school, the Quabbin Regional Middle High School (QRMHS).

The elementary schools formerly served kindergarten through 6th grade; In 2017 all QRSD elementary schools transferred their 6th grade programs to QRMHS. ^[6]
