MCAS Family Reports

We will be mailing home your student's MCAS report this week. The report outlines your student's performance on the spring 2024 MCAS tests. A sample report is attached below for reference.


If you have any questions please contact your student's teachers.

In the event that you do not receive your report over the next two weeks (the mail can sometimes take awhile), please contact the main office.

Spiritwear 🥳

Our amazing, wonderful, fantastic (insert further complimentary adjectives here) PAC is selling spiritwear. This fundraiser is the perfect opportunity to get all of your holiday shopping done in one fell swoop! They have hoodies, tees, pjs and more.


The sale runs until Monday, October 14th at 11:59pm. Don't miss out!


You can shop the store here.

Progress Reports

It's hard to believe that we are nearly halfway through the first trimester. Progress reports will be issued to students who have a D or below in any subject area. Students' progress reports will "go live" on Aspen on October 11th. If you do not see a progress report on the portal, your student is currently receiving a C or higher.

Color Run

The Color Run is back this year! Students will be partaking in the Color Run as the culminating celebration of the Boosterthon. Our students had a blast taking part last year. To make this year even more successful, we wanted to give substantial notice of the date, which is Friday, November 22nd.


* Please send students with clothing (including shoes) that can be covered in colorful chalk. *

Event Information

Bullying and Social Media Eduction and Prevention

Before the pandemic, screen use, anxiety, and social problems (like bullying and fighting) were top concerns for parents. The last few years have made some of these issues even more challenging. This talk will examine challenges in school, like bullying, friendship skills, and mental health, and how the ways kids use screens, gaming, and social media can impact these. Research will be summarized, and practical approaches to family life that can help children develop emotional resilience, healthy social skills and friendships, and sensible screen and social media habits will be discussed during this presentation. We will discuss how to move forward, how to partner with your child's school, and how to help parents be most productive in guiding their children towards optimal social and emotional health.
