Midterm Exams- Canceled

Good afternoon, 

With a focus on the social and emotional well-being of our students we have decided to cancel midterm exams this January.  Prior to the vacation we had an increase in the number of student absences.  Following the vacation the absenteeism continues to climb for students and the faculty. This has created a lot of anxiety.  We shared a new schedule for the end of January with our faculty and students today and I will post the updated schedule tomorrow for parents/guardians to review in my Friday email.

The immediate reaction from our students was relief!  

We believe at this time the decision to cancel the midterm exams is in the best interest of everyone at Westford Academy.

Have a good afternoon!

Respectfully, JIm Antonelli
