Congratulations to Hull High School student Pixi Dyer on earning the NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) STREAM to Sanctuary Certificate, recognizing her dedication to environmental research and stewardship!

From 2022–2026, Pixi completed more than 260 hours of field research in the Weir River Watershed and local marine ecosystems through the Hull Public Schools Summer Science Program and the Cohasset Center for Student Coastal Research (CSCR)

On Thursday, October 15, Pixi presented her capstone ArcGIS StoryMap project to the leadership team at the Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary in Scituate, showcasing her research, experiences, and contributions to understanding and protecting our local coastal ecosystems.

Earning the distinction of STREAM to Sanctuary Watershed Steward is a significant accomplishment that reflects Pixi's hard work, dedication, and commitment to environmental conservation.

We are incredibly proud of Pixi and her outstanding achievement!

At the start of this school year, the Hull School Committee partnered with the school leadership team to offer our students “A Gift of Presence" for the new school year. By requiring that Personal Electronic Devices were “Off and Away Throughout the School Day”, our students were freed up to be more present for their academic pursuits from bell-to-bell. Our educators report that this simple shift has created an environment with fewer distractions and more attention on learning.

We want to thank our students, families and caregivers for their cooperation as we implement this new policy. To date, we have had very few violations of the new policy (14 students) with less than a handful of parents picking up devices after a second violation. We have observed more students talking to each other in the lunchroom and the climate feels more focused on academics.

The final school committee policy, JICI, was approved on October 5th and is now being incorporated into the school handbooks at both Jacobs School and Hull High School. This message is the parental communication about changes to that section of the school handbook.

The LINK to a short survey on the fall open house held at each school is still live. Please give us feedback on this annual school tradition aimed at parents, caregivers and families.

Community. Confidence. Curiosity.
