历史
该地区的官方名称Northborough由尼普穆克人所决定。[1] 1656年5月14日，欧洲移民像向馬薩諸塞灣殖民地的马萨诸塞州议会请求重新建立萨德伯里地区的种植园。[2] 1766年1月24日，诺斯伯勒被建立在斯特伯鲁的附近。1775年8月23日，该地区发展成为了小镇并在1807年6月20日邻近的马尔伯勒被分出一块地合并到诺斯伯勒。[3][4]
1746年，在镇子的领导人被称作镇长后该镇的第一座教堂建立完成 。第一位镇长是约翰·马丁（Reverend John Martyn）。
1775年，诺斯伯勒的北部地区被并入威斯特泊勒，就像58年前威斯特泊勒从马尔伯勒分出那样。但是，这两个小镇共用了教堂一段时间。

All of the public schools in Northborough are part of the Northborough-Southborough School District. The public high school serving Northborough is Algonquin Regional High School, shared with Southborough. The mascot for Northborough-Southborough students is the Tomahawk. Algonquin's main sports rivals are the Westborough Rangers. Debates have erupted over whether Northborough and Southborough should have separate high schools; however, citizens of both Northborough and Southborough successfully fought to keep the school regionalized. Assabet Valley Regional Technical High School is an alternate choice for Northborough students, though the majority of students attend Algonquin. Private schools in the area include Fay School and St. Mark's School in Southborough, St. John's High School in Shrewsbury, and Bancroft School, Worcester Academy and Notre Dame Academy in Worcester.
