    Dear Shawsheen Students, Families, and Colleagues: 

     

    At last night's Citizenship Awards ceremony for grades 11 & 12, we recognized another exceptional group of Shawsheen students, just as we did at last week's ceremony for grade 9 & 10 students!

    Shawsheen Swap - Survey to Determine Interest

    The Shawsheen Tech Student Cabinet requests that you complete this brief survey to help us plan our first ever 'Shawsheen Swap.' The purpose of this event will be to provide members of our school community with affordable access to in-demand items that have been gently used and donated by other members of our school community. Items would be re-sold at a minimal cost, all proceeds would be donated back to support Shawsheen students, and any unsold items would be donated to a local charity/thrift store.

    Please help students determine the feasibility of hosting a successful event for our school community this year by completing the following (very brief) survey: Shawsheen Swap Survey.
