Taunton Public Schools mourns the loss of Representative Carol Doherty, a dedicated public servant, former educator, and long-time member of the School Committee. She was a consistent presence at district events and a steadfast supporter of our schools. She worked tirelessly to ensure that the achievements of our students, educators, and staff were recognized at the State House.
As an educator and legislator, Representative Doherty was a fierce advocate for public education. Her leadership helped shape policies that continue to benefit our community. Her legacy of service and commitment will be felt for many years.
We extend our deepest condolences to her family, friends, and colleagues.
