Bidding farewell to Mr. High Rock! His absence will be deeply felt - a yearbook coordinator, ski club manager, cross country coach, artist, creative soul, champion of children, and a beacon of kindness. Here's to a joyful beginning to your teaching journey! π #NewBeginnings

#ClassroomSpotlight: Mrs. Grant's students used their tech skills (thanks to Ms. Mack) to make stop-motion animations. Seeing kids apply new skills constructively and creatively to communicate a concept was fantastic. The students appreciated the experience!

Did someone say, Geography Bee? Congrats to our highest-scoring cluster, cluster 5. Major kudos to our winner, Alex Murako. Alex was the only person to get all 100 questions correct. This feat has not been accomplished in eight years! Way to go, students! #HighRockPride

Congratulations to our Student Leadership Team! Our students collected over 600lbs of candy to donate to the Pediatric Dental Specialists of Needham to support our local public service members, which included our senior centers, firefighters, and the police force. Great job SLT!

Today the Governor announced the school mask mandate will end on 2/28. As we have since the pandemic began 2 years ago, we will continue to prioritize healthy & safe schools in Needham. Early next week, I will update the staff & community about next steps around masking.
