  • Massachusetts Kindergarten Immunization Survey Results 2013‐2014
    Massachusetts Kindergarten Immunization Survey Results 2013‐2014 The Massachusetts Department of Public Health Immunization Program is pleased to make available the 2013‐2014 Massachusetts kindergarten immunization survey results by school. Please be aware that the data are limited in a number of ways, including those listed below. Data release standards do not allow for data to be shared for schools with fewer than 30 reported kindergarteners. Schools that reported fewer than 30 kindergarteners are indicated (†). Not all schools return their survey. Schools without data due to non‐response are indicated (*). Data were collected in the fall, but immunization data are often updated throughout the year and rates (during the same school year) may be higher than reported due to additional children receiving immunizations or bringing records to school. Also, the student body is dynamic and as students arrive and leave school, the immunization rates are impacted. Children are allowed a medical or religious exemption to one or more vaccines. Children without the required number of doses of vaccine do not necessarily have an exemption on file. Children without a record of vaccination, but with serologic proof of immunity to certain diseases (measles, mumps, rubella, hepatitis b and varicella), meet school entry requirements, but may not be counted as vaccinated. All data are self‐reported by the schools and discrepancies may exist. For example, the percent of children with 5 doses of DTaP may be less than the percent of children meeting the series even though the series includes 5 doses of DTaP vaccine due to the spacing and age at which they received the doses.

  • An Open Letter on Behalf of Independent Schools of New England
    An Open Letter on Behalf of Independent Schools of New England, We, the heads of independent schools, comprising 176 schools in the New England region, stand in solidarity with our students and with the families of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. The heart of our nation has been broken yet again by another mass shooting at an American school. We offer our deepest condolences to the families and loved ones of those who died and are grieving for the loss of life that occurred. We join with our colleagues in public, private, charter, independent, and faith-based schools demanding meaningful action to keep our students safe from gun violence on campuses and beyond. Many of our students, graduates, and families have joined the effort to ensure that this issue stays at the forefront of the national dialogue. We are all inspired by the students who have raised their voices to demand change. As school leaders we give our voices to this call for action. We come together out of compassion, responsibility, and our commitment to educate our children free of fear and violence. As school leaders, we pledge to do all in our power to keep our students safe. We call upon all elected representatives - each member of Congress, the President, and all others in positions of power at the governmental and private-sector level – to take action in making schools less vulnerable to violence, including sensible regulation of fi rearms. We are adding our voices to this dialogue as a demonstration to our students of our own commitment to doing better, to making their world safer.

The MIT Beaver Works Summer Institute is a rigorous, world-class STEM program for talented rising high school seniors. The 2019 program featured ten project-based, workshop- style courses: Autonomous RACECAR Grand Prix, Autonomous Air Vehicle Racing, Autonomous Cognitive Assistant, Data Science for Health and Medicine, Build a CubeSat, UAS-SAR, Embedded Security and Hardware Hacking, Hack a 3D Printer, Assistive Technologies Hack-a-thon, and Remote Sensing for Disaster Response. This year’s MIT Beaver Works Summer Institute was a complete success thanks to the enthusiasm of our students, the dedication of our instructors, and the hard work of our team members. We partnered with 140 high schools to recruit the future engineers who participated in our program. We had the pleasure of working with 239 high school students, 143 of whom joined our program from outside Massachusetts. We also inaugurated the first BWSI middle school class with 24 Massachusetts middle school students taking a specially tailored RACECAR course. In the coming years, we will integrate new programs into this initiative, increasing participation substantially. We will support high school STEM teachers who use our teaching materials to help better prepare their students for college and beyond. We will also help other universities and high schools create similar programs, working to build a network of institutes to collectively improve engineering education worldwide.

Thanks to your kindness, generosity and support, our 33rd year in service was a tremendous success. It is difficult to capture everything that transpired and the whirlwind of events that took place during our 2017 campaign. In reflecting back over the year, we were fortunate to experience many achievements, receive a number of accolades and create special moments and cherished memories. Camp Sunshine offered 22 programs and served 637 families (2,505 family members) from 46 states and 5 countries. We enhanced our outreach by visiting hospitals, clinics and fairs across the country and by partnering with Tropical Smoothie Café, placing information about Camp Sunshine in each of their cafes. The highlight was the unveiling of the Sunshine Smoothie & Sunshine Cup. We also expanded our transportation assistance program to families in need, thanks to the generosity of Hands on Tzedakah, Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, Noyes Brain Tumor Foundation, SEALs for Sunshine, Windham Automotive (Ron Eby), John & Ann Ewalt, Tropical Smoothie Café, and Texas Roadhouse. In fact, you may have even seen our branded van or bus on the road during your travels.

  • March 2016 Program.Pdf
    March 10, 2016 On behalf of the Girls/Women District of Massachusetts Hockey it is my pleasure to welcome you to the 2016 14U, 12U and 10U divisions of our State Tournament. The district wants to thank our hosts the New England Sports Center for making their facility available to us so we can house all divisions in a central location and allow girls’ hockey players and fans to watch their friends compete as they do. We also want to thank the remote locations used on Thursday March 10 and Friday March 11 that allowed us to support the growing number of female hockey players in Massachusetts. During the 2014/2015 season Massachusetts Hockey passed the 10,000 female registrants for the first time in history, and we have surpassed that number for the current season. The events of this weekend would not be possible without the dedicated work of the district directors and alternate directors who represent the Girls/Women District. The five directors are Christopher Gong, Chris Holden, Maria Nasta, Dave Pelletier, and Stephanie Wood. The four alternate directors are Brian Donahue, Seth Goodrich, Bob Joyce, and Don McNeil. Throughout the year the Girl’s/Women District receives the support from numerous other volunteers in the Massachusetts Hockey family and we appreciate their time and effort. We wish all our players and coaches the best of luck this weekend as they compete towards the state championship. To those teams fortunate to advance to the USA Hockey National Tournament we wish you the best of luck as you represent Massachusetts Hockey.
