Yom Kippur
Dear Westborough Families, We are reaching out to acknowledge the members of our community observing Yom Kippur . This year, Yom Kippur begins at sundown on the evening of Friday, October 11 and ends after sundown Saturday, October 12. In recognition of Yom Kippur, no homework will be assigned on Friday. Homework assignments, projects, presentations, or other assignments will not be due until at least Wednesday. The same policy applies for the administration of tests. Our Holiday Homework Guidelines outline a process for students from all faiths to take time off from school assignments, if they choose, so that they may celebrate important religious and cultural holidays with their families. Our intent is to provide students with an opportunity to engage fully in their families’ religious and cultural practices. Warmly, Allison Borchers Superintendent of Schools
