Happy Mother's Day! I hope you had a wonderful weekend.

I will be out of the building today (Monday, May 10) with limited access to email. 

Pool testing Tuesday's:
Students will be called to test by hallway instead of by grade this week. They will continue to be able to test prior to the start of the school day as well. Please remind your students in clubs and activities meeting in person they must enroll in pool testing, obtain their own PCR test, or show proof of vaccination prior to participation in in-person activities.  

A reminder to please review the MCAS schedule/information sent by Erin. Asynchronous instruction should be planned for all 9th and 12th grade students for the first two blocks of the day. You should plan for in person instruction for sophomores and juniors for the second half of the day and are welcome to do asynchronous or synchronous with 9th and 12th graders for the second two blocks.

Good afternoon- Thanks to everyone who helped to make New Student Orientation a success last night. It was great to see so many students and staff in the building. I am looking forward to seeing you all on Monday. We start at 8AM in the auditorium. There will be some members of the Class of 2026 painting their parking spots on Monday afternoon. Please try to park in the faculty parking lot or in the back of the building if you usually park in the student section.  New staff, please join the staff  Google Classroom . All information sent to faculty/staff will be housed here. The  class code is a5ca6a4. The custodians have been working hard to make sure each classroom has the correct number of desks (minus study halls). There may be a few classrooms off a desk or two based on student moves at the end of this week. If anyone has furniture in their rooms that is not being used, please let me know. We are short some L-shaped desks, under-desk file cabinets, and bookcases....

Good morning- I hope the adjustment to the clocks springing forward hasn't thrown you off too much. I love that it means more light in the afternoon/evening.  On Thursday, March 13 year 2/3 teachers from Milford and Nipmuc High Schools will be here for learning walks. I have shared a schedule with impacted teachers but it may change over the next few days. Thank you for your flexibility and willingness to welcome new educators.  I am sure you saw Jim's message that the School Committee will hear our proposal on Competency Determination for the Class of 2025 at their meeting on Wednesday, March 12. I hope to share an update at our faculty meeting on Thursday, March 13, after school in the library . The meeting will involve MCAS training. As you are aware, the state has moved to a new portal so it will be important information for everyone to hear. Training for staff that do not attend faculty meetings will be scheduled at another time. Following the training, we will be walking...
