NORWICH - Norwich has plans for a major, $149 million revamp of its elementary schools.The School Building Committee is recommending, in the interest of building new and improved facilities, that Norwich Public Schools cut from seven elementary schools to four. If the plan is approved, Huntington Elementary, Mahan Elementary, Wequonnoc Magnet Elementary, and Veterans Memorial Elementary would be the first to close, at the end of 2026.District figures expect the latter three to have double digit percentage population declines by that time.
