Move
Following a decision by the landlord at 758 Marrett Road (Minuteman Regional Vocational Technical High School) to repurpose the existing building, MIT Lincoln Laboratory identified a nearby long term location to construct a new child care center for TCC Linc.
The program relocated to the new facility in the summer of 2016.
