Last week, Quintin Nard, from Johnson & Wales University, visited the Culinary classes to discuss the benefits of an education. He demonstrated how to prepare Gnocchi and Cajun Spiced Chicken. The students enjoyed the presentation and are looking forward to making the recipe in class!
We want to hear from you! Please take a few moments to give your feedback on your child's school and the Scituate School Department as a whole through our anonymous survey.
This survey will take between 15-20 minutes to complete. When filling out this survey, you will ONLY fill out the parts that apply to you. For example, if you indicate that you have children at Clayville and at the middle school, you will only fill out those sections (and will not be shown the sections for the other schools).

Attention Scituate families! We are conducting a survey to find out from our families how you perceive the schools that your children attend.
In some ways, this overlaps with the Survey Works questionnaire, but it goes into more detail because, as a school department, we want to know from you what we're doing well and what we could do better!
This survey is anonymous and specifically designed for parents and guardians with students in our schools. The survey will be open for approximately two weeks and will close on Monday, April 21, 2025.
We hope you can take the time to give us this important feedback!

Students in US History II have been studying the Cold War. Students used dominoes to illustrate the Domino Theory that suggests that once a country falls to Communism, more will follow.
Students in US History II Honors made their teacher extremely proud when they held an empathetic and professional interview with Rena Quint, Holocaust Survivor, and author of “A Daughter of Many Mothers”.
This journey began with an in-depth reading of her autobiography. Students responded to high-level reading comprehension and critical thinking questions surrounding Rena’s gripping life story. The culminating activity happened last week when students were able to talk to Rena Quint directly from her home in Jerusalem, Israel via Zoom.
Topics discussed included the Holocaust, Holocaust denial, perseverance, resilience, the ongoing conflict with Gaza, and her formal meeting with President Joe Biden two summers ago. Students were inspired by her resilience and willingness to open up and communicate with them about her experiences and life in general.
