Seekonk Senior Pass Service Launched

Posted

Seekonk Public Schools and the Seekonk Human Services Center are launching a new “Senior Pass” for the Town’s eldest residents.

The program is for 65-year-old residents and older. For a small fee, they can apply for a Senior Pass for full access to all 2025-26 Seekonk Public Schools’ athletic contests and performing arts events.

A $10 Senior Pass entitles pass-holders to free access to all Seekonk Public Schools athletic contests (excluding playoff games) and all visual and performing arts events at any Seekonk school. Passes will expire following the 2025-26 school year.

“This is an opportunity for the Seekonk community to unite across age demographics around a common interest — the success of the Seekonk Public Schools system and Seekonk’s children,” said Superintendent Rebecca Kidwell. “This pass will especially help seniors with fixed incomes participate in our artistic and athletic entertainment, and it will also provide the youth of our community with the opportunity to share the highlights of their school years with previous generations. We’re hoping the end result will be a more tightly knit Seekonk community.”


“Credit for this initiative goes to Executive Administrative Assistant Bridget McNamara, Director of Athletics & Programs Kay Manigan, and Director of Human Services Brittney Faria,” Kidwell added. “We are looking forward to building connections between Schools and Human Services throughout the year to better connect our students to their community and our community to all our schools have to offer.”

Interested senior citizens can apply for the new Senior Pass through the Seekonk School Department at 25 Water Lane. Call 508-399-5106 for more details. Applicants must provide a state-issued ID showing their Seekonk residency to be eligible for a Senior Pass.
