Attached is the procedural guide for team/group feeds at the Head of School House. Within the coming weeks, we will be releasing the spring dates that the space is available. If you have any questions, please reach out to Pam deVeaux. 

Head of School Zoom for Class of 2022 Parents
Be on the lookout for a zoom invitation after Spring Break for a Head of School Zoom for Parents of the Class of 2022. We will discuss and answer any questions about the senior trip, senior dinner, and commencement. 

Parent Pop-Up
The Parents Association will be sponsoring a Parent Pop-Up every Tuesday night at 9:00 pm for our students to grab a late-night snack. The snack will change weekly (this week was grilled cheese) and be something easy and quick to serve. If you are interested in helping cook/serve snacks, please contact Pam deVeaux, the time commitment will be approximately one hour (8:30 p.m.–9:30 p.m.). We are only looking for volunteers to help cook and serve, the food items will be provided.
Before we move on to the warmth and sunshine of spring sports, we want to congratulate the Varsity Girls Basketball team on advancing to the NEPSAC Class AA semifinals, which will be played tomorrow at Tilton! Good luck to the Rams as they face off against the #3 seed Noble and Greenough starting at 3:00 p.m. You can watch live on YouTube! And don't forget to check PhotoShelter regularly for all photos, athletics or otherwise, of campus life!

Student Life Notes

If your student is going to be late to school or miss classes due to inclement weather, a medical appointment, or any other reason, parents or guardians should contact Emily Johnson at [email protected] or 603-286-1776. Students should not self-report their attendance.

Weekend leave requests for boarding students are due on REACH by Thursdays at 12:00 p.m. Going forward, if a student misses the deadline to submit a leave, he or she will be required to remain on campus for the weekend. In a significant situation that requires a student to leave campus at a moment's notice, a parent or guardian should contact the AOD at 603-520-6400.
Business Office — School Store Purchases

Happy almost Spring! We have had requests from students asking if they can charge school store purchases on their incidental account at FACTS. We would like to accommodate this, so for the remainder of this school year, we will allow students to charge items from the school store as long as a parent emails permission to [email protected] and the FACTS account must be current. If you have any questions, feel free to email Lisa Adkins [email protected].
