Wellington students gathered today for a special assembly celebrating curiosity and Black History Month, encouraging students to ask questions, learn from history, and honor the contributions that shape our world. School spirit was on full display as students wore sports shirts to cheer on our hometown New England Patriots. 🏈 One student took it to the next level, proudly holding a handmade Vince Lombardi Trophy and dreaming big — hoping this "Maye" be another championship win!

Students also performed a song about "being a rainbow in someone else’s cloud,” reminding us all how small acts of kindness can brighten someone’s day. The assembly showcased the kindness and connection our youngest learners bring to the Wellington community every day. Take a look -

For the first time, our 8th and 9th graders came together for a joint assembly with Chris Herren, former NBA and Fall River High School basketball star. Rather than focusing on the end of addiction, Mr. Herren guided students to consider the “first day”—the early choices and experiences that can set a difficult path in motion. By connecting with Mr. Herren’s younger self, students were encouraged to reflect on their own experiences, think about the “why” behind their behaviors, and recognize the importance of reaching out to a trusted adult or friend for support. It was a powerful reminder that early experiences shape the path ahead, and sharing struggles can help others make different choices. A special thank you to the Belmont Youth Activities and DARE for sponsoring this meaningful event.

This morning, BMS students attended an assembly featuring Dr. Mykee Fowlin’s one-man presentation, “You Don’t Know Me Until You Know Me.” Through humor, storytelling, and relatable characters—from a six-year-old boy to a college football star—Dr. Fowlin encouraged students to reflect on the lessons they’ve learned and how they see themselves and others. His mix of humor, acting, and personal experiences delivered powerful messages about empathy, understanding, and resilience. Students walked away with the reminder that everyone has a story, and that by looking beyond the surface and truly seeing one another, we can better connect and support each other.

Who would win: Jerry Pallotta or a room full of curious students? Everyone was a winner! Author Jerry Pallotta captivated Winn Brook students with stories of growing up by the sea in Scituate and how reading to his kids sparked his writing journey. His tales of selling seaweed when he was a kid, to touching a beached whale and a great white shark, inspired his books—including the popular Who Would Win? series. Mr. Pallotta's visit sparked curiosity, creativity, and a love for reading!
