Final grades will be available on iStudent/iParent tomorrow by noon.
Each year brings change and I want to take a moment to say thank you and we will miss you to the staff moving on. This year we say good-bye to Lynette Bowen (special education), Susan Furste (world language), Andrea Medved (world language), Ed Nelson (math), and Rachel Stevenson (English). We wish them the best and thank them for their service to AHS!
I wish to say a very special good-bye to two very special retirees. Jane Holden leaves us after 20-plus years as a special education teacher. Christine Scott leaves her science position also after more than 20 years serving the students at AHS. They will both be missed more than they know.

Summer Reading at APL: A message from Supt. Adams!
I hope that each and every family will take advantage of the wonderful opportunity our students have to continue developing their reading habits through the APL's Summer Reading Program and Community Events. Studies have shown that many students regress academically during the summer months when they are not actively engaged in reading exercises. Reading is a skill that continues to develop, and the summer is an especially important time to work on it.
Dear Ashland Parent/Guardian,
The MetroWest Substance Abuse Prevention Collaborative (SAPC) is conducting a survey to help us learn more about parent/guardian beliefs and perceptions regarding underage alcohol use. Towns participating in this collaborative with Ashland include Natick, Southborough, Northborough, Framingham, and Hudson.
Your feedback, during this anonymous 1-2 minute survey for parents/guardians with at least one child currently in Grade 6-12, will help us to structure and implement initiatives to improve the health and safety of youth in the MetroWest area. The results of this survey will be shared with you through health promotion activities and community-wide messaging over the next academic year. This survey closes this Friday, June 24th.
Survey Link: https://www.surveymonkey .com/r/MetroWestSAPC2016
If you wish to provide additional feedback to your local substance abuse prevention coalition, please contact Ashland’s Decisions at Every Turn Coalition at coalitioninfo@ashlanddecisi ons.org or visit their website at www.ashlanddecisions.org.
