Acton-Boxborough Regional High School

The Rev Report - June 25, 2026

Posted Date: 06/25/26 (12:48 PM)


Dear ABRHS Community,


Congratulations to the entire community on an exceptional school year! Today, all Gold Day classes met for shortened periods, and we held our 5th Annual Step-Up Ceremony. We celebrated the year with a slideshow, awards, and games. 


In my remarks to students, I encouraged them to put their phones and devices away and make an effort to connect in person with others. Get outside, help others, try something new, and spend time with family and friends. Let’s make this a connected, fun summer!


Finally, we are looking forward to welcoming the 9th graders and transfer students to ABRHS next fall. I hope everyone has a wonderful summer break.

Seniors, please vote today for your favorite Senior T-shirt design.


Phishing Emails from “College Board”

Today, many students and families received fake emails from “College Board” about a “Notice of Score Cancellation and Assessment Ban.” We have been in touch with the College Board, and these are not accurate messages. Please do not respond or follow any instructions in the emails. Our Ed Tech Department is continuing to investigate this situation and will provide an update to you via email as soon as possible.


AB Teens & Kids Summer Meals 

Thank you to our partners at the Acton Food Pantry, Open Table in Maynard, and the AB Resource Center for making lunches available for our Acton-Boxborough students this summer. Please read this AB Teens & Kids Summer Meals Flyer and complete this form to participate. 


Summer Mental Health Support 

Summer can be a long time away from school, and we are pleased to share these Mental Health Resources available for students and families to access over the summer. 


AB Human Rights Council - Ted-Ed Student Talks

The AB Human Rights Council invites students to share their interest in sharing stories, experiences, perspectives, and ideas by completing this form.. The theme for next year’s talks is “Pieces of Us.” More information will be available next year.
