Meet the New Medford High Headmaster Aug. 23

Medford High students and parents will have a couple of opportunities to get to know the school's new headmaster before classes start.

John Perella, who replaced Paul Krueger when he retired earlier this summer, will hold "Meet the Headmaster" nights at Medford High School Aug. 23 and 30. Both events will run from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the school's library.

The following is a message from Petrella:

It is with great honor and sincere pleasure that I assume the position of Headmaster of Medford High School. It is my belief that the best way to continue the success of MHS, and plan for its bright future, is to forge a genuine relationship with all of its stakeholders.  Over the next few months I hope to accomplish this by speaking with and listening to the students, parents and community members of Medford.  To begin, I have planned two “Meet the Headmaster Night” events.  At these meetings I will present my
beliefs, philosophies, and initial plans, as well as field questions from the audience.
