The 4th grade is so fortunate to have received grants from FoP. Our wonderful history trip to the Tsongas Industrial History Center in Lowell would not have been possible without their generous support. We are doubly grateful for the opportunity to attend a performance of the world-renowned Boston Ballet Nutcracker. For some of our students, it is a first time theater opportunity and a once in a lifetime experience.

Anne Cardoso, Fourth Grade Teacher

“Funds from the FoP have funded school-wide assemblies with Grammy award winning artists, performance majors from Longy and the Worcester Opera Company, and our music library.”
