🏀 “How you do anything is how you do everything.” 🏀

The Merrimack College Men’s Basketball Team and Assistant Coach Jimmy Langhurst visited Doherty Middle School this week to share an important message with our 7th grade students: “How you do anything is how you do everything.”

Players and coaches encouraged students to stay focused on their education, work hard, and understand that success in the classroom is the foundation for success in life. They also spent some time on the court connecting with students through the game they love.

Thank you to Coach Langhurst and the Warriors for taking the time to inspire our students! and reinforce the value of staying in school through graduation!

🍎We were delighted to welcome members of the Andover Leadership Academy to Andover Public Schools this week!🍎

It was a pleasure to host this enthusiastic group of community members at the beautiful West Elementary library this week! During their visit, Andover Leadership Academy participants learned more about our schools and took part in meaningful conversations about serving our community.

The Andover Leadership Academy is a 12-week program that helps community members deepen their understanding of local government while fostering civic engagement and community connections. We are grateful for the opportunity to share the important work happening across APS and to be part of this valuable learning experience.

Thank you to the Andover Leadership Academy members for your interest, insightful questions, and commitment to strengthening our community.👏

The Town of Andover is evaluating options to address facility challenges at Andover High School, including potential renovation or replacement. This project impacts our entire community, and we want to ensure every voice - teachers, students, parents, and residents alike- helps guide the decision-making process.

This brief survey takes less than 5 minutes to complete. It will help the project team understand community priorities, levels of support, key concerns, and questions regarding a potential facility investment.

Click here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/WWCVCLW to take the survey by Friday, October 9th. Thank you for investing a few minutes to help shape the future of our schools and town.
