Spinelli: Closing Foxborough Schools Friday was ‘Difficult’ but ‘Right Decision’

It’s been a year of challenging weather for Foxborough Schools Superintendent Debra Spinelli and the town.

When Foxborough Schools Superintendent announced schools would be closed Friday due to snow, she – or anyone else for that matter – had no idea the town would receive the highest snowfall total in the state by storm’s end.
