Covid Tests

We are pleased to have partnered with the DESE to make COVID test kits available for use following the Thanksgiving Break. The kits will be delivered in Period 2 classes on Tuesday morning.

These kits have an expiration date that has passed, however, the kits are not expired and you can use the QR attached that will indicate the correct/updated expiration date.

Yearbook Information

The 2023 Masconomet Yearbook is now on sale through the Jostens website. Please note that the misspelled "Chieftain" on the Jostens website was a typo on their part, and has nothing to do with the actual yearbook my class is producing. It has been removed by Jostens, sorry for any confusion this may have caused. The link to purchase a yearbook is below:
