Superintendent's Weekly Update

It was another great week for our schools filled with events, celebrations, and contests.

International Night was a huge success this week at Weymouth High School as we welcomed the community to celebrate the many cultures of Weymouth and across the world.

Next week we look forward to a night of Resilience, Inclusion & Respect at Abigail Adams Middle School on Wednesday, May 25 at 7PM in the Adams Library (details below).

At our elementary schools we were beyond excited to announce the winners of the Mayor Bob Hedlund art contest, pictured below, the winners include:

• Academy - Kyle Curtis
• Hamilton - Caitlyn Buccigross
• Murphy - Kayu Kwok
• Nash - Sydney Waas
• Pingree - Kristen Emanuel
• Seach - Sophie Geraghty
• Talbot - Noah DeBerardinis
• Wessagusset - Abby McCauley

Congratulations to all the winners, and participants! You all should be very proud of your talented work. Have a great weekend, enjoy the weather, and we'll see you all back in school on Monday!

Best Regards,

Robert Wargo
