Recap of Commissioner Riley’s Visit
Commissioner Jeffrey Riley, Commissioner of the MA Department of Elementary and
Secondary Education, visited Franklin today. We brought him to Helen Keller Elementary
School and the Annie Sullivan Middle School to participate in two major activities aimed towards
developing students’ social-emotional learning.
Mr. Riley participated in “Zones of Recess”, a set of recess activities designed so that students
can self-monitor their emotions and engage in activities aligned to their emotional state. He
even ran a few laps with our students in the Yellow Zone and worked his way towards his “100
mile” T-shirt. He also met with an articulate group of 8th grade World of Difference peer leaders
who explained how their work in leading anti-bias curriculum with sixth graders is having an
impact on the entire school. Here are some pictures from the visit:

Franklin for the New England Championship as well. We had additional strong
performances by all, in particular senior Roy Wang and junior Shoyaib Shaik.
