South Row School celebrates successful multicultural fest and plans for $20000 funding

The recent School Committee meeting highlighted positive developments in Chelmsford Public Schools, particularly regarding student performance and community engagement. Reports from South Row, Parker, and McCarthy schools indicated that the Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System (MCAS) testing has been successful, with low absence rates and minimal makeup tests required. This reflects a strong commitment to academic achievement among students.

At South Row, the recent Multicultural Fest was noted as a significant success, showcasing the school’s dedication to celebrating diversity and fostering community spirit. The Parent-Teacher Organizations (PTOs) across the schools are actively engaged, organizing numerous events that contribute to a vibrant school culture.

Additionally, South Row is set to benefit from a $20,000 funding boost, thanks to a successful Box Tops for Education campaign. The school is forming a committee to determine the best use of these funds, ensuring that the community's contributions directly enhance student experiences and resources.

These discussions underscore the ongoing efforts of Chelmsford Public Schools to prioritize student success and community involvement, paving the way for a supportive educational environment. As the schools continue to thrive, the focus remains on leveraging community resources to further enrich the educational landscape.
