Case D1 Award FINAL HEAD OF CHARLES RIVER SCHOOL RECEIVES CHIEF EXECUTIVE LEADERSHIP AWARD Gretchen Larkin Selected as the Division I Winner by the Council for Advancement and Support of Education Dover, Mass. – February 4, 2019 – The Council for Advancement and Support of Education (CASE) has selected Gretchen Larkin, Head of Charles River School (CRS), an independent school in Dover, Mass. for Grades PreK – 8, as the recipient of the Division I 2018 Chief Executive Leadership Award. Larkin is one of only two elementary school Heads to receive this award, traditionally given to leaders of colleges or universities. Larkin joined CRS in 2014 as Head of School, bringing experience, passion, and an unyielding commitment to excellence. Under her leadership, the school has constructed a new, state-of-the-art middle school and science lab, a new Media and Design Lab, created an outdoor Wetlands Laboratory (for the use of students and the broader community), increased diversity among CRS faculty and students, and reduced attrition to the lowest level in five years. “I am thrilled to receive this award; to be in the company of leaders from institutions like Babson College, Tufts University, and the University of Massachusetts is an honor and I am proud of our work at Charles River School over the past four years,” said Larkin. “In a world that is changing rapidly, conventional education is not enough, and we must push ourselves to innovate. I look forward to continuing to grow and evolve our school with support from our extraordinary community of Trustees, faculty, and parents.” Donald Brezinski, Senior Vice President of Institutional Advancement at Southern New Hampshire University and Chair of the CASE committee for this award, commented, “Gretchen was chosen due to her laudable record of success at CRS. She led the school in a record-setting comprehensive campaign, which had an important impact on the facilities and the curriculum. She also made impressive strides elevating equity and inclusion in the school, and has shifted the culture and practice of CRS to one of customer service and demand-based planning. Gretchen’s story at CRS is consistent with the spirit and criteria for this award, which is to actively support advancement, while providing leadership in the areas of innovation and overall institutional success.” Throughout her career, Larkin has worked in independent schools in the New York City and Boston areas. Prior to CRS, she served as the K-8 Assistant Principal and Head of Lower School at Milton Academy, and has also worked as a middle school math, English and history teacher, a reading and learning specialist, and as a PreK-8 educational coordinator. In 2017, Larkin was elected to the Board of Directors for the Association of Independent Schools of New England (AISNE). She also serves as co-chair of Greenwich Academy’s Boston Alumnae Chapter, previously chaired the Education Committee for St. Dunstan’s Episcopal Church, and served as a board member for the Northeast Association of Learning Specialists. The Chief Executive Leadership Award honors institutional leaders for outstanding contributions to their campus communities, for efforts in promoting public understanding of education, and for support of advancement at their campuses. Larkin will be recognized at the annual District I Achievement and Accolades Awards Celebration Luncheon on Thursday, March 14. About Charles River School Founded in 1911, Charles River School is an independent school located in Dover, Mass. for grades PreK – 8. CRS challenges and engages students through its hands-on approach to learning; the school’s MaD Lab (Media and Design Lab) and state-of-the-art middle school building are two new campus resources that create even more opportunities for innovation and exploration. Located on a beautiful 16-acre campus, CRS honors the pursuit of academic excellence and the joy of childhood. Learn more at www.charlesriverschool.org. ### .

  • 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.
