Did you know?
All children between the ages of 6 and 16 who live in Massachusetts are required to attend school and are entitled to attend a public school free of charge. Most children attend school in the school district in which they live; however, parents may choose to enroll their children in public schools outside of their home district.
The Spencer-East Brookfield Regional School District (SEBRSD) is located in Central Massachusetts, with schools in Spencer and East Brookfield. As a gateway community, we are excited to open our doors to those from surrounding communities who are seeking a new opportunity and welcome new students to our district through the school choice program. We are currently accepting applications for Preschool, kindergarten, and 12th grade.
Why choose SEBRSD?
At SEBRSD, the positive relationships between parents, students, and teachers are the foundation of our learning environment, and we encourage ongoing communication to ensure your child’s success. We constantly strive and are committed to creating an environment in which every student is supported to achieve the highest levels of success. Our educators are focused on the consistent individual growth of the students so that they are “college, career, and life ready!” Our District prides itself on providing and fostering a hybrid learning environment of both traditional and adaptive educational instruction and opportunities that seek to engage our students in “next generation education!” We provide an extensive network of caring and supportive staff. As well, we provide the resources needed to deliver outstanding educational instruction and opportunities for all of our students. In short, we nurture, encourage, and challenge each student to reach their full potential by offering the resources and support needed in a diverse and ever-changing environment.

Our high school students are offered the following course levels: Standard College Prep (SC1, SC), Honors (H), and Advanced Placement (AP). We offer the College Board’s Advanced Placement Capstone Diploma Program to students preparing for admission to selective four-year colleges. The PACE program gives students with significant intellectual disabilities opportunities to develop academic, daily living, occupational, and interpersonal skills. David Prouty High School has a top-notch Athletics program (including football, basketball, baseball, softball, soccer, field hockey, golf, tennis, cross country, track & field, indoor track, and cheer) and other extra-curricular activities such as Marching Band, Chorus, Performing Arts and many other clubs and groups that engage students outside of the classroom.
Early College Opportunities!
David Prouty High School also offers early college programming in partnership with Worcester State. Early College programs are intentionally designed to empower students traditionally underrepresented in higher education. MA Early College Designated Programs work to blend elements of high school and college to provide students with the opportunity to experience and complete college-level academic coursework on a clearly articulated pathway and simultaneously gain exposure to a variety of career opportunities. Early college programs also reduce the time and expense of earning a college credential while increasing the likelihood of completion.
Career Vocational Technical Education Opportunities!
David Prouty High School has four DESE-approved career technical education (CTE) programs. In addition to our standard curriculum offerings, we are thrilled to offer students the opportunity to participate in our Criminal Justice, Early Education and Care, Environmental Science and Sustainability, and Business/Marketing programs. These programs are designed to train students to earn a certificate in their chosen trade, and to prepare them either to enter the workforce directly out of high school or to move on to higher education with certifications and credentials in their chosen field.
District Recognition!
2025 WCAC Resiliency Award Winner! As a result of our work over the past several years, our Cubs Corner Preschool has been recognized by the Worcester Community Action Council’s through their Resiliency Awards program. The Resiliency Awards were established to celebrate community members who make an incredible impact in our region.

Purple Star Schools! The Spencer-East Brookfield Regional School district earned the Purple Star Award Designation from the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE). The Purple Star School program is designed to help schools support military-connected students, who often experience frequent relocations and the challenges of parental deployments. In Massachusetts, the benefits of the Purple Star Designation include support(s) in areas like relocation, enrollment, registration, and social and academic planning for military-connected students. As a result of our due diligence and dedication to our military, our district is honored and proud to serve our military-connected students and their parents and families.
2025 US DOE Green Ribbon Schools Award Nominee! The Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education recognized Cohasset High School and the Spencer-East Brookfield Regional School District for their achievements in three essential areas of school sustainability: 1) reduced environmental impact and costs, 2) improved health and wellness, and 3) effective environmental and sustainability education. This Earth Day (April 22), MA DESE hopes that other schools will be inspired to take actions of their own, learning from the best practices demonstrated by Cohasset and Spencer-East Brookfield. Note: The Department identified Cohasset and Spencer-East Brookfield in anticipation of submitting them for the U.S. Education Department’s Green Ribbon Schools program, but that program is not accepting submissions this year.
