Advice and encouragement for ALL grades from the people of Scituate High School:

“Keep trying to the best of your ability, don’t be afraid of making mistakes, and senior year will go by fast, and take advantage of the opportunities given to you.”    James Cooney, Guidance Counselor 

“Definitely get on community service hours for prom, check in 3rd or 4th term for recommendations, and work on college applications during the summertime.”    Heather Willinger, History Teacher

“Get out of Scituate, even if you just get into Boston more often.”     Mrs. Sheryl Pace, Art Teacher

“Life moves pretty fast, if you don’t stop once in a while to look around you could miss it.”   Shane Trombly, Class of 2024 Senior

“Take things slowly, don’t rush, enjoy high school, and don’t get consumed by needing to be the best at academics.”   Jadian O’Sullivan, Class of 2024 

“It’s important to take a mix of classes that are both fun and challenging. Push yourself to a certain extent. Find as much balance in your life as possible. High school is what you make it, you’re not going to be here forever.”   Emma Braun, Class of 2024 

“If you can’t say something nice, don’t say nothin’ at all.”    Emma Primrose, Class of 2024
