Off-Campus Trips meet faculty at the Schoolhouse.
If you sign up for weekend activities, you are expected to attend. If you do not attend, and do not alert Mr. Spearing, the faculty chaperone, or the Dean on Duty prior to the event you will lose weekend privileges the following week.
On this Wednesday, we will be having an Upper School Assembly in the Chapel at 8:30 a.m., not Advisories. This is a great opportunity to make school-wide announcements, so please let me know by 4 p.m. tomorrow if you’d like to make an announcement or presentation. All video materials should be emailed to Mr. Raffetto at that time.
On Friday, we will have an Upper School Assembly in the Athletic Center at 11:15 a.m. and there are limited openings for announcements.

Hello Students and Faculty.
Please let me know by the end of this week if you would like to attend the 2015 GLSEN Massachusetts Annual Fall Conference. Click here to read more about this Gay, Lesbian, & Straight Education Network conference in Holyoke, Massachusetts on November 14.
Both/And: GLSEN Massachusetts Annual Fall Conference
Saturday, November 14
Paulo Freire Social Justice Charter School, 161 Lower Westfield Road, Holyoke, MA
The theme of the 2015 GLSEN Fall Conference is “Both/And.” With this theme, we strive to explore our varied and multiple identities, how they connect and overlap, and how they are impacted by place and context. We want conference attendees to bring their whole selves to the conference and build together.

Hey guys!
Some of you may have noticed the Varsity Volleyball team in the dining hall selling shirts today (Thursday). If you were interested in one but did not order one before, please reply me with your size. The second batch of shirts should be coming in next week. We will send out another email when they arrive.
The shirts are $15. WE TAKE CASH AND SAMMY CARDS!
$4 from each sale will be donated to Breast Cancer Research!
The sizes range from S to XL (Ladies may want to size down because they are men’s sizes!)
If you have already ordered a shirt but did not pick it up today, please stop by the dining hall during lunch tomorrow to pick them up. We will collect the money when you come get your shirt.
Thanks,
Vivien Shao
