LINKS: Yarmouth and Dennis establish committees to determine future plans for closed schools

YARMOUTH/DENNIS – The Towns of Dennis and Yarmouth are evaluating how to best use two former schools.

The Mattacheese and Wixon schools closed in 2023, having  been replaced by the Dennis-Yarmouth Intermediate School.

Yarmouth says potential uses for Mattacheese include a wide range of possibilities such as housing, recreation, economic development, cultural centers and conservation. A public meeting was held last month.

The options being considered for the Wixon in Dennis include housing and a youth, community or recreation center.
