Happy Spring from the West Boylston Middle High School PTA!

The PTA Spring Fundraiser has wrapped up the order taking phase.  Pick up will be 3:00 pm on 3/21.  Please mark your calendar if you placed an order.   Thank you to all that participated in this fundraiser!  We continue to use our money for the benefit of our fantastic faculty and students, and your help in our fundraisers helps to make this happen.

Rehearsals for "Beauty and the Beast, Jr." continue to role along.  The cast is now working from memory without the use of scripts, costumes are being made, and props are accumulating.  We are now officially one month to show time!!

The scholarship committee is currently waiting for the scholarship applications to be given to our PTA Screener from the Guidance Department.  All applications are screened by a member of the PTA to make sure applicants have met the scholarship requirements.  The Screener then assigns the applicant a number before blacking out all identifying information like name, etc..  Once this is done, the committee will gather to read the scholarships and determine what 4 lucky Seniors will receive them at graduation.  The choosing of all recipients is done anonymously.  The reading committee is chosen based on whether or not they have children that are graduating (these people are excluded) and whether or not they have close ties to the Senior Class.  This year's committee includes members whose oldest children are in Middle School as well as those with children in their younger years of High School.  We take every opportunity to make sure the scholarships are awarded based on grades, essay, and activities and not on biased favoritism.
