Dear Somerville High School Families,

Welcome to the 2023-2024 school year! We are thrilled to welcome our students and staff back to school. We hope that you were able to relax and make special memories with your friends and families over the summer break. Now it is time to look forward to a wonderful new school year as we are “Engaged" and ready to thrive at Somerville High School! 

We also have a few additional members of our team joining us this year to help make your students’ experience an engaging and enjoyable one. Dr. Wallace, our new director of special programs, has worked tirelessly to help provide our students with postsecondary opportunities. 

Somerville High School is such a special place to learn and grow and we are proud of our school traditions and have high expectations for every student.  Our students are kind, resilient, and eager to learn.  Together with our dedicated staff, we strive to make connections with students to help them feel valued, accepted, and safe. Our Yegua theme for this year is “Yeguas Engage,” we will continue to guide our mission to provide a rigorous and joyful inclusive school environment. Our ultimate goal is to encourage active student engagement to foster a lifetime love for learning.

Partnering with families is crucial to promote a healthy transition to school both socially and emotionally. We are excited to partner with you and your student at the start of a new school year and we will continue to place a strong emphasis on social-emotional learning while focusing on building classroom community.

Sincerely, 

Steven Toliver
