As we near the end of the first trimester, everyone agrees that November is a busy month at SSVT! I'd like to share some assorted updates with you:
Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Mariani: Last week Mr. and Mrs Mariani welcomed three grandchildren...in the same week! The Marianis' daughter Angela and her husband Barry welcomed their son Bryce Alfred Greene on November 11th. Also, daughter Nichole and her husband Tom Dever welcomed their daughter Sadie Dever on November 15th. Daughter Ashley and her husband Kevin welcomed their son Tyler James Cutter on November 14th.

If there is an spike in SSVT enrollment in 2027, we will know why!
NCTE Conference: On Friday November 22nd, teachers Sandra Baldner, John Scopelleti and Michael Mahoney are presenting at the National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE) conference held in Boston. Their presentation is entitled "Faking the Grade". SSVT faculty have spent several years refining our grading procedures in an effort to give an accurate picture of student growth and achievement in the areas of Achievement and Work Habits. Thank you to these instructors for sharing their insights and talents!
Thanksgiving Football Game: November 28th at 10:00 at Southeastern Regional in Easton. If you can make the trip, come out and support our players and coaches for this wonderful tradition!
Congratulations to our Cheerleaders: The cheerleaders are competing on Sunday, November 24th at Wachusett Regional High School in the State Championship Cheerleading Competition. The start time for our group is 10:30 AM. We are in the top 10 in the state for Division 4. The girls earned this spot for receiving a score 141.50 at the South Regional on Sunday Nov. 17th. at Dartmouth High School.
Cross Talk cable show. Whitman Hanson Community Access has been very generous in hosting SSVT on its Cross Talk cable show. This month, I was fortunate to be on the show with SSVT students Payton Brown and James Aiguier. Readers can watch the episode here!
Tours: The 8th grade tour groups continue to report back on how impressive our shops are and they have commented on the great job of our student tour guides. SSVT students clearly show their school pride and their shop pride!
Open House: December 10th from 5:30-8:00. We look forward to welcoming prospective students and their families!
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
