With no school today, Friday November 11th, we wanted to remind you that Monday will be a Day 5 in the schedule.

Whether it's the bus drivers who safely transports students, the front office team who help run the school, the cafeteria staff who provide nourishment, the nurses who keep students healthy, the custodians who keep our buildings sparkling, or the paraeducators who help students succeed, our Education Support Professionals are an integral part of our school team!

Monomoy is launching a Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging Advisory Council, which will advise the Superintendent and the School Committee, resulting in thoughtful actions that respond to the needs of all students, families, and staff. The goal is to create a school district in which all students feel like they belong, all students are successful, and demographics are no longer an indicator of success.

MRHS thanks all veterans this week, especially those on our staff: Robert Smelter, Dustan Burns, Candace Wolcott, Rick Travers, and Tim Brosnan!! We are also proud of our graduates who are currently serving in the military; you can find their display on our first floor near the main office. Remember and Honor our Veterans! Thank you!

This morning, MRHS faculty and staff took some time to honor our colleagues that have previously served our nation.

Mary Hemeon and our NHS students created a beautiful display at our main entrance to commemorate Veterans' Day.
