Today we had an in-person reminder of how fast time flies in the life of our school. The years we share with our students may feel long in the day-to-day, but in reality, they are short—and before we know it, our students have grown up and moved on to new chapters.

This morning, we had the joy and privilege of welcoming back some of our former Finn students who are now graduating from Algonquin (tomorrow morning). Dressed in their caps and gowns, they walked the halls of Finn, where they were greeted with cheers and applause from staff and our current Pre-K, Kindergarten, and Grade 1 students.

It was a moment that brought many of us to tears as we reminisced with our former students and they shared their memories of walking the halls of Finn as young learners, not knowing what their future held. Seeing our former students return so grown-up and full of promise was so inspiring.

Their presence today was a powerful reminder that while our time with students may be brief, the bonds we build and the impact they have on our lives last a lifetime.

Enjoy the weekend.

 

Southborough Organization for Schools (SOS) is looking for volunteers for the 2025-2026 school year. SOS is Southborough School District’s parent teacher organization (PTO). SOS is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, composed of parent volunteers committed to working with our school teachers and administrators to enhance the learning experience of our children.

Each school has its own SOS committee which plans school wide events and meets directly with the school principal to support the school. This is a great and fun opportunity to get involved by giving back to your schools while directly supporting your child(ren). 

You can find the list of open positions on the Finn SOS committee, along with the roles and responsibilities by following the link below. If you have any questions please email finnsosvolunteer@gmail.com.
