Greetings Old Colony Community,
We have made it to February and it appears that we are going to have an old fashioned New England Winter. The snow is abundant and the ponds are frozen which means the sleds, skis, and fish traps will get good use. As much as I love winter, I know that spring will come all too soon. Get out there and enjoy this winter before it’s gone.
Congratulations to the coaches and all the players for your hard work. Our sports teams and clubs are providing excitement around the school. Please take in a game or event and catch the excitement. Come out and support them. The Drama Club is preparing for their spring show; Chicago. Details will be coming soon. February break begins on the 14th. When we return, hopefully everyone will feel energized from having a week off.
The days are getting longer and the spring sports season and spring Drama Club production cannot be far behind. Come on over and support all our students as they strive to be the best they can be.
Best,
Gary Linehan
