Principal's Message 

Dear Zeh Families,

This week, we wrapped up our MCAS assessments. Thank you to everyone for ensuring students were present each day. We had very few makeup sessions needed, which was extremely helpful. Our students worked incredibly hard, and I’m excited to see our school results in the coming months. Families will receive an official report from the state for their child in the fall.

As I previously shared, Mrs. Berger and Mrs. Dallaire will be retiring at the end of this school year. To celebrate their incredible careers and contributions to our school community, we will be holding a retirement reception on Thursday, June 11th from 3:00–4:00 PM. Current and former students and families are all invited to attend. Please see the flyer below for additional information.

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!
