  • 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.

  • 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.
