Dear Holbrook Public School Families:
This year is a very difficult year for the entire district for numerous reasons. The economy has tanked, accountability standards continue to be placed on the district, and the lack of resources have lead us to make difficult decisions. Yet, we start each school year with tremendous fortitude and strength in each other and the students who attend HPS.
The excitement, energy, and hope that is in the air leads us to believe that all the issues will be addressed. We will work together as a community to provide for the children, the professional staff, and the requirements placed upon us by the taxpayers.
Although we have been a struggling district for a number of years, if not decades, we believe in HPS and the community of Holbrook. We will care for your children, educate your children, and provide them with the education they so deserve. We will do so with pride in where we work and with a sense of community.
We want our students to know how much it matters to us that they possess character, integrity and purpose. We know that our students will someday graduate and leave us. In doing so, we want to have confidence that we have prepared them well to be trustworthy, hard-working, and honorable family men and women.
I am available at Baeta @holbrook.k12.ma.us or at 781-767-1226 for comments, suggestions, and ideas.
Regards,
Joseph F. Baeta
Superintendent
