The Boardwalk Campus is the home of three distinct school programs in the Acton-Boxborough Regional School District.

Located by Fort Pond Brook, one of many Town natural resources, the brook plays a pivotal role in the design of the school with adjacent protected wetlands and a riverfront area. The project is carefully sited to minimize the impact on the site and celebrate the local ecosystem. As part of the site improvements at the Douglas Gates Huebner project, the existing boardwalk was rebuilt to offer a more user-friendly experience. The new, covered boardwalk is almost twice the original width, offering space for bicycle and pedestrian traffic. This boardwalk provides a vital connection across the site, which is bisected the Fort Pond Brook and a surrounding wetland. In keeping with the project’s sensitivity to environmental impacts, great care was taken to reconstruct the boardwalk on the existing footprint and to minimize disturbance to the sensitive surrounding ecology.
