AROUND THE GROUNDS

Devens School students volunteer over April Break to clean up around the school, plant flowers and vegetables and spread mulch. All materials were provided to the students by city employee Kevin Noonan and his staff.

MAKING MUSIC — LITERALLY

Devens School students recently completed a fun art and music project with teachers Rose Whitcomb and Tim Walsh in which they designed and made pan flutes. The students had a lot of fun participating in this hands-on project.
