Ashburnham-Westminster is a rural regional school district in north-central Massachusetts, serving the adjoining towns of Ashburnham and Westminster, approximately 50 miles northwest of Boston near the New Hampshire border. The area is characterized by rolling hills, working forests, and several scenic ponds including the expansive Wachusett Reservoir to the south. Both towns maintain their New England small-town character with historic centers, while offering access to outdoor recreation and a quieter alternative to the state's more densely populated regions.
