May is always the busiest month of the year, but oh so much fun! Please see our adjusted calendar below to provide you a visual of events. 191 students are taking 366 AP exams in 16 different courses from May 1-May 12. We are so very proud of our scholars! We are looking forward to Math MCAS on May 16 and 17, our prom at The Century House on May 19 at 6 pm, and our many Senior events. Communication with Seniors and their parents/guardians was sent this week to share the schedule for senior exams and the Senior “End of Year” activities.
A schedule for 9-11 Finals will be released in the coming weeks. Finals will be held on June 14, 15, 16, and 20. Further information about prom will be sent to families and posted in next week’s newsletter.
We thank a local benefactor for providing a generous donation to our Care Closet which stocks items for students with unmet needs or unexpected "situations" so that they may be able to better focus on school and achieve. Thank you also to parents who have responded with such enthusiasm and generosity!
Please visit our regularly updated wishlist for needed items!
