Welcome to the Natick Public School System
2010 - 2011 School Year
Superintendent's Message
Dear Natick Community,
It is with great pleasure and pride that I welcome you to the 2010-2011 school year. I am extremely proud that our school district continues to excel above many others in this state. This is because our teachers, staff and community all do a remarkable job of supporting our students and setting high expectations.
I would like to highlight the following initiatives to build on our past successes:
- Because of careful budgeting and planning we have been able to maintain our most valuable asset…our staff.
- Plans for a new Natick High School continue to be developed. Construction has begun on the field house at Memorial Field and the maintenance facility located across from Natick High School. Construction for the new building is scheduled to begin mid September and plans are still on schedule to open the building in August of 2012.
- Our district has embraced the Information Age in the design of this new building by creating a state of the art technological environment. Staff and student training will begin this year in anticipation of working in our new 'one-to-one' computing environment. Additional online classes have been added to our curriculum.
- It has been a busy summer …a new roof was installed at Memorial Elementary School, a wireless environment at the Kennedy and Wilson Middle Schools was completed, and a point-of-sale system for the cafeterias has been added in all our buildings.
