5/16

As we head into the final stretch of the school year, there is so much positive energy and excitement in the air! The building is buzzing with activity, and it's a great time to celebrate the many accomplishments of our students.

AP testing and MCAS are in full swing, and we’re proud of the focus and effort our students are putting in. On Thursday night, our band and chorus students wowed us with an incredible concert—thank you to everyone who came out to support the arts! Our spring sports teams are also pushing hard as they head into the playoff season—good luck to all our athletes.

A special reminder that the Junior/Senior Prom is just one week away at the Atkinson Country Club. We’re looking forward to a memorable evening for our upperclassmen.

Let’s keep the momentum going and finish strong!

Six Pentucket students were honored last night at the Early College Recongition Ceremony last night at NECC. Our students earned an Associates Degree before they receive their High School Diplomas. What an accomplishment!

Congratulations to Jackson Beauparland, Kira Dolan, Gray Driscoll, Riley Duggan, Tyler McPherson, and Kathryn Valeri
