By looking at this photo, can you see the signs of a good and happy school?

Medford High School has a long and unmatched Halloween tradition whereby 80-90% of the students and faculty dress up and compete in a costume contest. Why is this so significant? It represents that the students and faculty feel emotionally safe, feel like they belong to a larger community, feel like they can take a risk, feel like they can be creative, feel like it is okay to be different, and most importantly feel like they can laugh at themselves and laugh with others. In the wake of the pandemic, it is my goal to support all students of Medford Public Schools that they can not only become who they want to be on Halloween, but that they can grow into the person they want to be for a lifetime.
