Teen Wellness Fair
The Teen Wellness Fair took place on Friday, April 8th. Our goal with the Teen Wellness Fair was to provide a mix of activities such as information booths, hands-on activities, games, taste tests, and physical fitness challenges for students to explore the many aspects of wellness. The Categories we provided was:
- Social/Emotional
- Physical/Health
- Environment/Safety
- Spiritual/Intellectual
Overall the Fair was a success. Especially with not having a Wellness Fair in a couple years, Mrs. Freitas and Intern Madailein Eberhardt did a great job. The students had a blast and so did the teachers. As a community we believe taking care of yourself is important!

"Letters About Literature" Competition
This year the 10th Grade English Honors classes participated in the Letters About Literature competition sponsored by the Massachusetts Center for the Book. This reading and writing initiative asks students to write a letter to an author that profoundly impacted their lives. Letters went through three rounds of screening to create sets of finalists, 20 letters in each of the three age-level categories. Judges then identified, from among the finalists, 5 Honors and 5 Honorable Mention letters. Congratulations to Yu Ying Zou who received Honorable Mention and Steele Ponte who was a finalist. Abigail Gates, Jasper Hayes, and Lily Gould all made it to the semi-finalist round of judging. Accolades to all!

Athletic Summaries: Week of 4/11
BOYS TENNIS
We beat Bourne 4-1. It was a great game. Then later in the week we came out on top against CCA 4-1! Awesome work. We hope to keep going with our successes.
GIRLS TENNIS
Girls tennis has had a great start to our season winning having a 5-1 winning streak. We won on Monday against Sturgis East and then again on Tuesday against Cape Cod Academy. Both games everyone put forth their best tennis. I'm excited to see what’s in store for the rest of the season!
BOYS TRACK
Last week the Boy’s track team had a close victory against Sandwich. It came down to the two relay teams, in which Monomoy won both the 4x100 and the 4x400. This week has been full of progress with many of our runners hitting personal bests in their events. On Wednesday we take on the Sturgis East and West track team before the vacation with a large hope for a victory.
GIRLS TRACK
Track went against Sturgis East and West this past Wednesday. Our girls had some notable and well earned individual success! Kiki Pigo-Cronin placed 1st in the shot put and 3rd in the high jump. Olivia Willis placed 3rd in the shot put and 2nd in the discus. Rhiannon Vos placed 3rd in the long jump, 2nd in the triple jump, and 1st in the 2 mile. Brynn Dobbs placed 3rd in the triple jump and 1st in the 800 meter run. Grace Arnold placed 1st in the high jump and 2nd in the javelin. Alexa Ford placed 3rd in the javelin and 2nd in the 200 meter sprint. Megan Gogol placed 2nd in the 400 meter hurdles and 3rd in the 100 meter high hurdles. Sami Goode placed 3rd in the 400 meter hurdles and 3rd in the 800 meter run. Alice Murphy placed 2nd in the 100 meter high hurdles. Chloe Zaloom placed 3rd in the 400 meter run.
SOFTBALL
This week has been successful with a win against Bourne on Monday, 12-2! Great fielding by Michaela Crossen and an out of the park home run by Lily Furman and Courtney Kelley. Unfortunately our game against Nauset was postponed due to the rain and our Martha’s Vineyard game also got canceled because they didn't have enough players. This being said, we look forward to our games after break which are against Sandwich, Saint John Paul, and Sturgis East.
BASEBALL
The boys dominated over Mashpee coming out with a 4-2 win. It was a great game.
GIRLS LACROSSE
Girls lacrosse played SJP on Wednesday and came up with a huge win 16-14. Great defensive contributions from Emily Layton and Emma Burnie. Shoutout to Victoria Letendre for her amazing performance in goal, delivering many key saves. Goals scored by Lucy Mawn, Kate Gabri, Maddie Silvester, Lucy Bates, Paige Nash, and Karah Deveau.
GIRLS GOLF
The girls have been working hard all week and it is paying off. We started off with a win over Nauset and then followed up with another win over DY, moving our record to 4-0! We are looking to keep this winning mentality throughout our season!
SAILING
We took a tough loss to Tabor. Our week as a whole has been a learning experience. Our skills are improving and we are exciting for the upcoming week!
