Dear Hill-Roberts Families,
We hope everyone is enjoying the long weekend!
If you can believe it, Monday is our first day of MCAS testing for the Spring. This year is flying by! As always, we are proud of our students’ and staffs’ hard work and remain grateful for your partnership in support of their holistic development. Thank you!
In other news, Hill-Roberts had a Recent Golden Ticket Winner! In addition to a $5,000 grant from the Feinstein Foundation to our school, the Feinstein Foundation provided our student with an additional $500 to donate to a charity of his choice, which was Children’s Hospital. A special thank you to the Feinstein Foundation for the continued support of public education in Massachusetts and Rhode Island!
Two quick reminders:
MCAS Testing starts on 4/1 (this Monday) for Grade 4
Community Potluck on 4/11 - RSVP only (for allergies and planning purposes)
Have a great weekend!
Sincerely,
Dr. Paul Madden, Principal
Mrs. Nora Hassan, Assistant Principal
