Millis athletics is switching from NFHS to HUDL starting February 4th. Watch girls and boys basketball along with other sports in the fall and spring by installing the HUDL app on Apple or Android. In addition, the app can be found on SMART TVs like Roku, Amazon Fire Stick and more. No subscriptions needed for the rest of the 24-25 school year. Many schools have gone to HUDL (might require subscription for their home contests), but some might still use NFHS, so please check both.

Riverside Mobile Crisis Support
From Riverside Community Behavioral Health Center:
As we welcome a new school year, we want to emphasize the importance of mental health and well-being. Returning to school can bring about a mix of emotions—excitement, anxiety, anticipation, and more. We know for some students the beginning of a new school year can come with difficulties, including depression, anxiety, school avoidance and complex emotional and behavioral issues. The team at Riverside Mobile Crisis Intervention would like to remind everyone that we are here for all students no matter the level of concern; we are available to see people 24 hours a day anywhere in the community: at home, school, or our office. Please share our information with caretakers who may need help navigating these complex situations at home, and we are available to come into the school for in-the-moment assessment to help partner with you in navigating challenging events. We’re just a phone call away at 781-769-8674 or toll-free at 800-529-5077. Thank you from the team at Mobile Crisis Intervention, a component of Riverside’s Community Behavioral Health Center.
