On December 1st, Dedham Public Schools had the tremendous honor of hosting Governor Maura Healey, Lieutenant Governor Kim Driscoll, Education Secretary Patrick Tutwiler, and Department of Elementary & Secondary Education Commissioner Pedro Martinez at Dedham High School for an important statewide announcement about the future of high school graduation in Massachusetts.
Their visit reflected a major shift in how the Commonwealth will prepare students for success in college, career, and civic life—and an exciting recognition of the work already happening here in Dedham. We are grateful that the work of our educators, students, and families helped bring this defining moment to Dedham High School. It is a recognition of our collective dedication to ensuring that every learner graduates confident, capable, and ready for what comes next.
