Principal's note: Principal's note:

What a week! Starting off last weekend with the Terpsichore Spring Recital, we rolled right into a fabulous send off for our Special Olympics as they made their way to Medfield for the Five Town Annual Special Olympic Games! We also extend our thanks and applause to the Drama Club for their engaging performance during today's all-school assembly. Our sixth graders took to the trees and the sky this week on a Ropes Course field trip.

Thank you to everyone for their food donations for the Millis Food Pantry and SRO Maganello for coordinating our efforts!

Looking ahead, we have several exciting field trips planned, along with celebratory events for our graduating eighth graders as they complete middle school.

Please remember to register for next year's bus transportation, and be aware of potential bus updates for Monday morning. More details on these items will be shared soon.


Congratulations to the newest Band Member of the Week: Savannah Neitlich!!
