Welcome! I'm so glad you're here!  Please have a look around.  

Important Information from the Chocksett Student Handbook...

ATTENDANCE

If your child will not be attending school, please call the school at (978) 422-6771, prior to 7:45 A.M. 

The school nurse, Sydney Spence, may verify absences via phone calls home.

MAKE-UP WORK:

Students who have been absent or who are doing poorly in a subject must assume the responsibility for missed work and/or asking for extra help. If a student is absent for a prolonged period of time due to a medical issue the student will be given an adequate amount of time to make up the work missed (number of days missed will equal number of days allowed to do make-up work). If your child is absent for one or two days, please have your child call a friend to find out the missing assignments or check the teacher’s website. Parents may request and pick up homework from the office on the third consecutive day of absence. Assignments will be available for pick up at the office after 3:30 PM.

FAMILY VACATIONS DURING SCHOOL TIME:

The District does not condone students going on family vacations during school time.  Extended absences from school usually have a negative effect on student performance.  Vacations during the school year interrupt a consistent flow of learning. The class time lost can never be regained. In the event that school time is lost due to a family vacation, please note that it is the parents’ and students’ responsibility to check the teachers’ websites for assignments if they are available. Teachers are not required to prepare work ahead of time. Once the student returns to school, the student is responsible for seeing teachers to get all missed work. The student will have ONE WEEK to make up the work missed due to a vacation. A letter should also be submitted to the school nurse in order to avoid absentee phone calls.
