About

Pinkerton Family and Friends,

What a week it has been! Halloween was on Tuesday, and we kicked off November with frost on the ground. With colder weather approaching, please ensure your students are dressed warmly for the upcoming months.

Looking ahead to next week, remember that there will be no school on Tuesday, November 7, 2023, as it is Election Day and a Professional Learning Day for our Faculty and Staff. Additionally, school will be closed on Friday, November 10, 2023, in observance of Veterans Day.

You will notice a new face in the Main Office next time you’re on campus. Krystal Pohl has moved from the Sophomore Office and is now the Administrative Assistant in the Main Office. She will be there to greet visitors and answer any questions that come in. I know she will do a great job, and we are looking forward to her being in the role. 

Our Fine Arts department performed the Chorus Cabaret last night in the Stockbridge Theatre. Their talent and hard work are so impressive, and I look forward to seeing their performances throughout the year. 

Last week Ms. Bridey Bellemare, Executive Director of the New Hampshire Association of School Principals visited campus and met with our Associate Deans. It was great to have her with us, and she was impressed with what Pinkerton has to offer.
