Student Advisory Council highlights concerts, clubs and fundraisers
Summary
At the Dec. 17 Rockport School Committee meeting, SAC member Charlie Tells summarized recent student activities — including concerts, a middle-school musical, new clubs and a swim‑a‑thon fundraiser for Special Olympics and a benefit for a student undergoing cancer treatment.
Charlie Tells, speaking for the Student Advisory Council, told the committee about a steady stream of student activities across Rockport schools, from orchestra summits and jazz and chamber concerts to middle-school theater and new clubs such as newspaper, film and yearbook. He noted winter sports are under way and highlighted two fundraisers: a swim‑a‑thon organized by Anna Patrick for Special Olympics and an orchestral fundraiser to support a student, Finn Mulhern, who is undergoing cancer treatment.
"Tomorrow will be a fundraiser for Finn Mulhern," Charlie said, adding that Mulhern is “currently at Berkeley” and that the school community expects the event to support him. The student report included specific participation details (for example, middle‑school musical activities and the list of winter sports) and emphasized ongoing student engagement in arts and service opportunities. The committee thanked the SAC representative for raising student perspectives during the meeting.
