Shout Out
Let's come together to celebrate all the wonderful things that happen every day in our schools. Click on the picture to tell us about something you saw, an appreciation for a staff member, or an overall feeling of gratitude. I will share them with the community in an upcoming blog post.
- Yadira Batista, GHS, is grateful to Amy Sanderson, GHS L.I.N.K.S. Program: For helping and supporting my daughter, always willing to go the extra mile".
- A GHS Staff Member wants to Shout Out Sara Hoomis, GMHS Principal: "I wanted to send a quick note to express my sincere appreciation for Sara's leadership and support this school year. Her consistent visibility throughout the building does not go unnoticed. It sets such a positive, encouraging tone for both the students and the staff.
It means a great deal to work under a leader who genuinely prioritizes the well-being of the faculty. Sara's proactive check-ins and her willingness to personally step in and assist with whatever needs to be done show her dedication. Sara is always focused on solutions and doing everything she can to keep the school running smoothly and effectively. All of her efforts ensure that both staff and students feel fully supported every day, and we are incredibly fortunate to have her as our building principal." - Martha Dodge, GMHS wants to celebrate Debbie Gray, Shareef Kotb, Greg Keoseyan: "Big shout-out to Debbie Gray, Shareef Kotb, and Greg Keoseyan for volunteering to chaperone the homecoming dance. I appreciate their positive attitudes and energy that they always bring with them."

Girls Varsity Soccer
With the blowout on Saturday (9-0), our girls are advancing in the tournament. Although the weather was rainy and dreary, GPS students showed up in huge numbers to root our players on! Their next game is tomorrow against Millis. The game will be played at Medfield High School, 88R South Street, Medfield, MA 02052. Go Royals!
Teacher Negotiations
It might be hard to believe, but the Georgetown Education Association's collective bargaining agreement expires at the end of August 2027. As a result, we have begun the process of negotiating its successor contract. We are grateful for the partnership and collaboration between the central office and the union executive board over the past year. We have come together to problem-solve, find solutions, and find common ground on issues that directly impact our students. We look forward to sharing details of the negotiated agreement once it has been reached.
