Superintendent Pam Beaudoin, Principal Julie Sgroi and Athletic Director Cameron Molinare are pleased to share that Manchester Essex Regional Middle High School (MERMHS) has earned the 2024 Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association (MIAA) District 5 Sportsmanship Award.
Each year, athletic directors from each of Massachusetts' nine districts vote for a school within their district to receive the Sportsmanship Award.
This year, MERMHS was selected to receive the District 5 Sportsmanship Award by the district's athletic directors.
“We are so proud our athletic program was selected for this award,” said Principal Sgroi. “Our students and coaches have set a strong example for those around them, and I am glad they are able to be recognized.”
As recipients of the Award, MERMHS administrators, faculty, sports team representatives and Athletic Director Molinare attended and received the award at the 30th Annual MIAA Sportsmanship Summit at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough on Thursday, Nov. 7.
"It is an honor to be recognized by our peers for our student's commitment to upholding the values of respect and sportsmanship," said Molinare.
"This award is a testament to the positive environment our athletes, coaches and parents consistently strive to create through integrity, responsibility and respect," said Superintendent Beaudoin. "We are thankful to the athletic directors who voted for us to receive this honor."
