Luther Burbank Middle School students wrapped up their year by participating in a concert at the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston.
Hale Middle School recently hosted its first Career Day. Students from 6th to 8th grade enthusiastically participated by sharing their career interests through surveys. They were then thoughtfully paired with passionate volunteers from the Nashoba community. The lineup of volunteers was diverse, featuring talented individuals such as graphic novelists, dedicated police officers, microbiologists, occupational therapists, and a myriad of other fascinating professionals. It was a day filled with exploration, learning, and endless possibilities for our students to consider as they journey into paving their own path.
Thank you to our Groundbreaking Ceremony Student Representatives! Hansika Kommanavancha (Class of 2024), Olivia Goegel (Class of 2028), and Maddie Caron (Class of 2031) represented the current graduating class, the first to graduate from the new building, and the first to attend all four years at the new high school, during our recent NRHS Groundbreaking Ceremony.
