Roudenbush Today

Celebrating and Preserving Westford's History...

In 1998, the Roudenbush Community Center celebrated the 100th Birthday of the Westford Academy building at 65 Main St. Frost School, which today houses the Roudenbush Children's Center at 73 Main St., will be celebrating it’s 100^th birthday this fall, 2008.

The Roudenbush Community Center is also committed to preserving and protecting the buildings under its care and custody. Since 1990, over $1.5M has been spent on repairing, improving and maintaining our three historic buildings which are Main St., Frost and Old Nab, as well as capital projects and new playgrounds for our 3 buildings. These buildings house 80+ employees and well over 50 instructors and contractors for our Community Education Programs. This money came from the Roudenbush Associates (1990-1999) and the Roudenbush Community Center, at no expense to the Town.

And we are still growing in spirit, service and numbers!

The Roudenbush Community Center was established to enrich the lives of Westford residents including adults, children and seniors by offering programs and services in the area of education, entertainment, health and the arts at the lowest possible cost to taxpayers.

The Center continues to grow with the town. More and more people have taken advantage of Roudenbush programs over the years. Hundreds of programs are offered each year with over 8000 adults and children participating in our programs. Programs include community education, gymnastics, preschool and daycare.

The Roudenbush Community Center has been the Lead Agency for the MA Department of Education Community Partnership Grant since 1998. The Westford Community Partnership (W.C.P.) program exists to provide affordable child care to working families with preschool children (ages 3-5) in Westford. The Roudenbush Children's Center at Frost, and the Preschools at Old Nab. and Main Street, are members of the Westford Community Partnership along with other preschools in Westford.

Roudenbush Children's Center Preschool at Main Street and Old Nab, Kindergarten at 73 Main Street, and Full Day Child Care at Frost, with its dedicated teachers and staff continue to make the centers warm, exciting and inviting for the younger child. Hundreds of children are serviced by the centers each year.

The Frost school opened in 1908, and will be celebrating its 100^th anniversary this year. Despite its many years, or perhaps because of, being filled to capacity every working day, the Roudenbush Children's Center at Frost is holding up beautifully. The Frost building was converted to an Early Childhood Center in September of 1999, and offers full day infant thru Kindergarten programs.

The Roudenbush School Age Program was moved to the Abbot School and Millenium to help the growing needs of working families in Westford. Over 100 families are serviced by this program.
