Dear Wahconah school community,
It is both an honor and a privilege to be reaching out to you as the new Principal of Wahconah Regional High School. Mr. Steve Messina, our new Assistant Principal, and I are excited to begin this new endeavor with the staff, students, and families of our great school. Our goal is to reach out to you more often than you’ve probably been accustomed to in an effort to keep you apprised of all of all of the wonderful happenings at Wahconah. Our new school website is up and running but please keep in mind that it’s still under construction and will be so for the next several weeks. You may access it at http://cbrsdwahconah.ss10.sharpschool.com/ where you will also be able to access our school blog and our own Twitter page. You can also find important information at:
- School blog - http://wahconah.blogspot.com/
- Wahconah Twitter - @wahconahrhs
- Mr. Robb’s Twitter - @AaronRobb5
We are also starting this year with a brand new platform that is guaranteed to be an improvement over Edline. As such, have been working tirelessly to bring you PowerSchool. Similarly to the website, we ask for your patience as we continue to learn how to use this new platform to its fullest extent. We plan to offer a face to face session with you prior to “Back to School Night” on September 15th so you can ask any pertinent questions about PowerSchool in that venue.
Our School Advisory Council has remained dormant for the past several years at Wahconah. My hope is to breathe new life into that organization and re-ignite some of the quality communication that occurred in the past as a result of SAC. Typically this group has met one Monday evening a month to discuss issues pertinent to school, get updates from administration, and explore new and exciting ideas in education. I will be sending a separate mass email about that later this month along with more information that will be posted on the school website as well. Please consider joining!
Finally, it is with great pride that I inform you of Wahconah’s acceptance in the Massachusetts School Building Authority (MSBA) program. The first official meeting of the newly formed Wahconah Building Committee will take place later this month. We will be sure to post all information pertinent to the MSBA process on our website as well. You can access that information on the “MSBA” Quick Link toward the bottom of the page. We are currently in the eligibility phase of the process, which is the earliest stage. You will be hearing a great deal more about this as the school year progresses. Though there is still plenty of work to be done, it is extremely exciting to be entertaining the prospect of creating a new and improved Wahconah to serve the students of our district well into the 21st century!
On behalf of Mr. Messina and the rest of the Wahconah staff, we are excited to begin anew by working with you and your student in the coming school year.
Sincerely,
Aaron M. Robb
Principal
