Reflections

I wanted to take a moment to share with you the number of positive comments I received from teachers and parents that were in our building on Friday. I realize that many of you do not get to see the 'Parade of the Adorables' that takes place at different times during the day, but the preschoolers always seem to love walking through the building showcasing their costumes while observing the 'bigger' kids outfits. The number of you that helped to make these future Indians and their teachers/parents feel welcomed was further affirmation of the terrific young men and women we have at BMHS.

Our Marching Band won the New England Scholastic Band Association's Division 1 Championship today! The Color Guard was awarded the top honor and Owen Kelly received the Top Drum Major Award. I realize that it is difficult to attend all the events that our students participate in, but I thought you would like to know how well you are thought off outside of Billerica.

Our Boys' Soccer team and  the Girls' Cross Country team captured the MVC title, the Girls' Soccer team missed the title by 1 point, and the Girls' Volleyball team is still in the hunt for the tournament. Senior Brian Corbett captured the MVC Golf title. The football team earned an impressive victory this past weekend defeating Waltham 44-0 and will be taking on Newton South this weekend at home. I am sure I have missed a few items, but this should illustrate the depth of successes we have had in just our first two months.

Our Theatre department is preparing for the fall production of Noises Off and we are hoping to put together an early show for the Senior Citizens in town so they can see the amazing things our students are accomplishing on a regular basis.

Every once in awhile it is important to stop and reflect on all the impressive things you have accomplished. These successes are not new to Billerica students. You are continuing a path that began a long time ago.

Remember, You are NOT successful in spite of being from Billerica, You ARE successful because you are from Billerica.
