Westborough-based BJ's Wholesale Clubs has partnered with 199 schools -- including 27 in Massachusetts -- for this school year.

The firm's 17th Adopt-a-School program involves a BJ's representative working with the school's teachers and staff to determine how the company can help the school, BJ's officials said Wednesday in a press release.

The local schools participating are the Hemenway Elementary School in Framingham and the Lincoln Street School in Northborough.
