ORLEANS Tom Conrad’s long service to the Nauset Public Schools, first as principal of the high school and then as superintendent, will end with his retirement in June. Conrad shared the news at a joint meeting of the Nauset school committees Feb. 3.
“I have been truly blessed to be in public education over 43 years, 29 of which in the Nauset system,” he said. “I am totally grateful to be able to work in a community that values education at the highest level.” Conrad promised to work toward a smooth transition to a new leader for the system.

BREWSTER The Nauset Regional School Committee is defending its plan to hold a district-wide vote March 30, seeking approval from voters in Brewster, Eastham, Orleans and Wellfleet for its $132 million plan to renovate and expand Nauset high school.
In a presentation before the Brewster Select Board Monday, school committee chairman Chris Easley said there are concerns that separate spring town meeting votes cannot be done in time to secure a $36.6 million grant from the Massachusetts School Building Authority.
The grant offer is valid until May 31, and if spring town meetings are delayed due to the pandemic, the grant could be lost, the committee has said.
