Students from Grade 5 through Grade 8, along with our two talented Old Saybrook High School choirs, filled the auditorium with a beautiful blend of holiday classics, pop culture favorites, and traditional choral arrangements.
Their voices, confidence, and joy lit up the stage, a true reflection of the hard work of our music educators and the supportive community cheering them on.
Thank you to everyone who joined us for this special tradition.
We’re thrilled to share that 11 OSHS students are diving into the Electric Boat NextGen Boat Program, gaining real-world, hands-on experience in some of the region’s most in-demand trades!
Since November 24, our students have been attending experiential learning sessions at Grasso Tech in Groton, with three more sessions ahead at Rhode Island Community College in Westerly. Even better — they represent all four grade levels at OSHS, and for the first time in program history, we have three female students participating!
Throughout the program, students are exploring six high-demand career pathways at Electric Boat:
Welding
Ship Fitting
Machining
Pipefitting
Electrical
Sheet Metal Fabrication
A huge thank-you to Gretchen Holthausen for chaperoning this week’s session and capturing some great photos of our students in action.
