Congratulations to all the Grade 10 students on your hard work and dedication in preparing for the MCAS English assessment! You've put in the time and effort, and I do not doubt that your effort will pay off.

World Language Week concluded on Thursday and Friday last week.

On “Cultural Lenses Day,” a panel of students from diverse backgrounds shared personal stories that tied with this year’s theme, “Languages Take You Places. Thank you Señorita Musa and Señor Leonard for facilitating such a powerful conversation!

We ended our “Passport to Culture Showcase” WLDW 2025 culminating event with professional performing groups, So Alma and Grooversity, who shared sounds from Cape Verde, Portugal, and Brazil!

Our Drama Club trip to NYC was covered by cbs news this week. Check out the clip below!

Next week Grade 8 students will take the English Language Arts MCAS on Tuesday, April 1st and Wednesday, April 2nd.

On the dates of testing, test-takers need to bring a charged Chromebook and their power cord to school. The tests are taken on their Chromebook, so this is very important. We do not have extra Chromebooks or power cords.

The Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education requires that we provide students with an extremely strict testing environment. For students, this means:

• Headphones, iPods, Smart watches, or electronic devices may not be used at any time during the testing period. All cell phones will be collected by test proctors before the start of the exam and returned to the student at the end of the exam period. No exceptions. Students may bring books and schoolwork to do should they complete the exam before the end of the testing period.

• Students must be in their assigned exam room no later than 7:33 a.m.

You can help your son or daughter prepare for this state-wide assessment by reinforcing the importance of:

• Giving your best effort on each test question

• Being on time

• Getting a good night’s sleep and eating breakfast

This is your LAST opportunity to buy a Lawn Sign if you would like one! They are available here along with some other senior swag. Orders MUST be placed by March 31st or you will miss out.

If you have any questions, please see Mrs. Sullivan in the school store!
