Happy last day of school!!

Words can't express how proud I am of the work all of you did this year. I am looking forward to our reset next year. 

Here is a recap of information from today's meeting.

Faculty and department meetings will remain the 2nd and 4th Thursday's of the month. Our first faculty meeting will be on September 8 at 2:55pm. The AEA did vote to have meetings after school this year.

Back to School Night will return to it's regular format and is scheduled for Thursday, September 15 at 6pm.

Summer building hours are 8am-2:45pm. Please email Bob Burgess, head custodian, the night before you are looking to access the building to make sure your area is open. You can also call the front office but Linda will be in and out during July and I will be out the entire month.

The AEA also ratified the MOA for the schedule adjustment to keep X-block in place next year for the same time as this year. Thank you for that. 

Finally, thank you again for the overwhelming personal support you have given me this year. I am looking forward to the start of a better year for sure! But first, downtime!

Enjoy your summer.

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....

Happy Mother's Day to all of the moms & mother figures out there- Best of luck to the special athletes competing in the 5-Town Special Olympics today!  I apologize for the late notice, but we will do a class meeting with the juniors/prom attendees on Tuesday, May 13, and the seniors on Wednesday, May 14, during x-block. Please send your second block seniors to the auditorium, as we are not able to make announcements on 5/14.  Art Saves Ashland, which includes the student art show, as well as the Spring Choral Concert, are happening back to back on Thursday, May 15, starting at 4pm.  The concert is at 7pm in the auditorium.

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...
