My child attended this school and I was very disappointed. We moved to Chelmsford for the school system and it was a complete letdown. The facilities were outdated and the communication system is antiquated. The committees are exclusive so if you are a 'blow-in', meaning you did not go to school here, you are not likely to be recognized at all as a contributor. Things are the way they are and always will be. If you are seeking innovation, this is not it! My child did not do well here and it started to make sense why so many students are on IEP's. Plus when a student is on an IEP, they can get 'special assistance' when they complete MCAS assessments which makes the ratings completely false. Don't trust anything you read or hear about Chelmsford.

Dear Chelmsford School Committee Members,I would like the Chelmsford public schools to stop feeling satisfied with their stupid tyranny one to one chromebook policy regardless no matter what and start adopting a similar Bring your own device (BYOD) Program from concord carlisle regional high school because I don't care about minimizing student learning disruptions during the school day because I oppose against terrible mandatory school-issued devices because the chromebooks are very cheaply manufactured and they are not very durable in my own opinion because I want all students in grades 9-12 with disabilities to have the right to be allowed to use their personally owned laptop computers during the school day regardless wether teachers and administrators like it or not regardless,

I love going to McCarthy because there are a lot of opportunities there. We put on a play every year that students can audition for or you can help build the set in tech club. The performance music groups are another option, you can choose between orchestra,band, or chorus. The teachers are great. They make sure that you understand the material before moving on and some teachers have before school reviews/help. The only thing that stresses me out is the homework. I'm in the 7th grade and the amount of homework we get is stressful and depending on what group of teachers you get I personally think that team 7-2 is the hardest but our teachers make sure we know everything.
