This fact sheet is to help you as a parent/guardian to find the answers you may need to ensure a smooth start to the school year and moving forward. The transitions that occur in middle school are an important part of adolescents. The information below will provide you with contacts, resources and procedures to follow to help support you and your student. This is the stage when we want to keep an eye on them, but also teach them self-reliance and advocacy.
The Parent/Guardian Fact Sheet is available as a pdf.

Tick exposure can occur year-round, but ticks are most active during warmer months (April-September). There are two species of ticks common in Massachusetts—the Deer Tick (Ixodes scapularis) and the Dog Tick (Dermacentor variabillis). An adult Deer Tick is substantially smaller than the more common Dog Tick.
