Middle School Counseling
The 'Eureka!' Program from Girls Inc.
What is the ‘Eureka!’ Program?
Eureka! is a 5-year STEM, college and career readiness program that works with teens all around the Western MA area. Please refer to "5-Years of Eureka!" flyer for more information.
Who are we looking for?
Due to COVID19, last year we recruited a smaller than usual rookie class. Therefore, this year, we are looking for applications from students currently in the 7th and 8th grade.
We are looking for students who show an interest in STEM, college, or learning new things in general— or at least are interested in exploring those options. Applicants should be curious and willing to be hands-on; as well as open to meeting other like-minded teens from Western MA.

High School of Choice Balloting for 8th Graders
Happy New Year 8th Grade Families.
The Balloting process will begin next week and will be posted on the district website.

I hope you consider balloting Duggan number 1. I would love to work with your student throughout their high school career. In our high school we have 90 seats for the 9th grade and we have been filling up and carrying a wait list.
At Duggan High we have similar opportunities that the larger schools offer in a smaller more personal environment. All of our high school students take college preparatory coursework that will prepare them for all future careers. Below are just a few highlights:
- Honors and Advance Placement tracks for qualifying students
- Full athletic program
- Internships
- Dual enrollment
- Career Counseling
- Clubs and Organizations (NHS, GSA, Nursing, Gaming, are just a few)
- Career Pathways for Health, Education, Engineering, and Law
I look forward to guiding you through the process.
