Yesterday we welcomed Grandparents and Special Friends to campus!

As part of this annual event, Grandparents and Special Friends had the chance to hear from members of the faculty and student body, learn about specific classes, and most importantly, spend time with their student! 

To see more photos from the event, check out the Flickr album linked here. 

On Monday, students witnessed a total solar eclipse, which only happens when the Moon passes between the Sun and Earth. Everyone gathered on campus and watched the eclipse as it continued its journey across North America, a rare moment to experience as a community. 

Thank you to Science Department Chair, Mike Savaria, for providing eye protection and finding the best viewing spot! 

Thank you to everyone who joined our Spring Virtual Town Hall this Tuesday!

It was great to come together as a community and hear updates from various members of the faculty, staff, and PGA.

Last week as part of Student Life, women from a wide range of fields and professions came to campus to meet and share their experiences with students in honor of Women’s History Month! 

Guest Speakers: 

Congratulations to Josiah Driscoll (‘24) on being named the 2024 Boys Basketball MVP of the Massachusetts Bay Independent League! Josiah is a two year captain and a three year varsity starter for the Chargers. He has had an outstanding season, averaging 18.6 ppg, 9.8 rpg, 3.2 apg, 2.3 spg, and 1 bpg. In 8 games of league play, including the MBIL tournament, he averaged 19.5 points, 12.8 rebounds, and 3.9 assists, including a 10-13-10 triple double v. Gann in early February.

 

As the numbers indicate, Josiah is an incredibly versatile player.  While he is truly a guard, he is able to operate in the post against smaller defenders, serve a screener or ball handler in pick and roll plays, and he has defended everyone from point guards to 6'7" centers with great effectiveness.

 

In addition to his physical play, Coach Bubar notes, “Josiah is an outstanding and inclusive leader, and one of the best, if not the best, teammates I have ever had the opportunity to coach.” 

 

Josiah helped lead the Chargers to win the 2024 MBIL Championship. The team also secured the #5 seed in the NEPSAC Class C Large School Tournament and travels to Hyde, Maine to take on #4 seed Kents Hill this afternoon.

 

Congratulations, Josiah!

Congratulations to the Varsity Boys’ Basketball team on winning the 2024 Massachusetts Bay Independent League Division I Championship! The Chargers entered the tournament as the #1 seed after going 5-1 in league play. They defeated #4 seeded Brimmer 59-44 in the semi-final match-up and went on to win the championship, defeating #2 seeded Boston Trinity Academy 55-49 in a back and forth battle.

Coach Bubar noted that, "This year's team joined a select group of CH-CH athletes by winning a league title this year, an accomplishment they are rightfully proud of. However, the best part of this team didn't come from winning a title; it came instead from the feeling of family, fostered by an outstanding senior class, that helped make the tough moments more bearable and the joyous moments even better. There is an unforgettable cast of characters on this team, with many different players stepping up at different moments to make an impact, and Coach Loar and I are just lucky to be here for all of it."

The team awaits news of a potential bid to the NEPSAC Class C large school tournament. 

Congratulations, and GO CHARGERS!
