The Citywide Art Show is an incredible tradition in the Marlborough Public Schools that has continued for over 30 years.  The celebration will take place this Thursday, March 29^th from 6-8 pm at the Whitcomb School (back entrance foyer).

This art show is an annual art exhibition that celebrates the artistic accomplishments of students across the district, representing Kindergarten through 12^th grade, with over 800 pieces of student work on display. The collection of work demonstrates a progression of skills over time.  Visitors can see how the stages of artistic development evolve from elementary school to middle and high school.  It truly is evidence of the substantial arts program we have in the Marlborough Public Schools.  There will also be cultural events including Capoeira (type of martial arts that is practiced in Brazil) as well as Karate demonstrations in the yellow cafeteria. Come participate in a fun art project for families in the blue cafeteria.  Don't miss this fun and colorful school and community event!

 Youth Public Safety Academy is open!

Each summer, the Middlesex Sheriff's Office sponsors the Youth Public Safety Academy (YPSA) for 8-12 year-olds from communities across the county. YPSA is a week-long camp designed to expose our youngest citizens to role models in public safety – namely sheriff’s officers, and their local police, fire, emergency medical services (EMS) personnel, as well as to teach them valuable life and safety lessons.

There are still spots open in select cities and towns for the Middlesex Sheriff's Office Youth Public Safety Academy! Click here to read the flier!

Flu on the Rise in the Metro West Area

Due to the increase of influenza (flu) type illness in our schools, MPS is providing families a helpful flu prevention guide. Be proactive by reminding your children to thoroughly wash their hands and use cough etiquette (cover their mouths).  Be aware of flu signs, and have your child(ren) avoid close contact with others if they are exhibiting flu symptoms.  Consult the Flu Guide for Parents, the Flu Guide for Parents in Spanish, or the Flu Guide for Parents in Portuguese to become more educated about flu symptoms and prevention measures.
