Earlier this month, Brooke Kamienski, Honors Dual Enrollment Intro to the Human Body, Environmental Science & AP Environmental Science Teacher at Lenox Memorial Middle & High School, hosted a Healthcare Hop for 55 students.
Students had an opportunity to “hop” from table to table to learn about various health care related fields and engage in small group conversations with a pharmacist, nurse, dentist, physical therapist, psychologist, and other healthcare providers.
"Over the year, the students have expressed how much they value learning about careers related to the content we learn." - Ms. Kamienski

The Morris Elementary School has done it again!
Only 7 schools in Massachusetts were recognized for their exemplary implementation of PBIS (Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports). Asst. Principal Holly Soules was on hand at the North East Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports Conference to accept the award on behalf of the Morris School.
PBIS is a proactive, evidence-based framework that promotes a positive school climate by explicitly teaching and reinforcing behavioral expectations. It reduces disciplinary incidents, increases instructional time, and supports equity by ensuring consistent, fair responses across all student groups. PBIS also strengthens students’ social-emotional skills, such as self-regulation and empathy, while enhancing staff collaboration through aligned practices. By using behavioral data to guide decisions and involving families in the process, PBIS creates a safe, inclusive, and supportive environment where all students can thrive.
School Resource Officer Colvin was recently honored by Morris students with student-signed poster in recognition of National Police Officers' Week!
Along with the great sign was tote full of treats for the officers back at the station.
