Billerica Blast
The BLAST is still in need of raffles, food items, help during the BLAST, and cleanup at 5 a.m. Senior parents cannot help during the BLAST but it would be great if we could have senior parents there at 5am to clean up and drive their sleepy teens home.If you can help, please contact Jenn Marino at volunteerfortheblast@outlook.com

Members of our graduating class returned to their elementary roots this past Friday and were met by their "first" teachers in a celebratory and nostalgic environment. Each building created posters, provided food, and shared stories both old and new as teachers and students reconnected.The teachers were amazed how much the students have changed physically, but how similar they were to their younger selves.
