$5,000 awarded to Christa McAuliffe Charter School

Posted on by

We recently awarded the sum of $5,000 to the Christa McAuliffe Regional Charter Public School through our Charitable Foundation.

According to Foundation President Robert P. Lamprey, the grant was awarded in support of the School’s plans to move from its present Clinton Street location in Framingham to a larger facility where both building and grounds will better meet the unique needs of its Expeditionary Learning program.

One of only 165 Expeditionary Learning Schools in the nation and 15 in Massachusetts,  McAuliffe Regional will reach full capacity in the coming school year with 306 students in grades 6, 7 and 8, and a long waiting list. The School hopes to increase enrollment capacity over the next three years, said Executive Director Kristin Harrison.

We were proud to sponsor the Summer Concert Series on the Natick Common

Framingham Co-operative Bank and Natick Federal Savings Bank sponsored Natick Recreation & Parks Summer Concerts 2012 on the Common last night. Entertainment was by the group “Usually Normal.”

Bank employees enjoyed the evening and passed out more than 200 plus MutualOne water cups.  The banks will become MutualOne Bank in the fall 2012.

The next sponsorship by the banks will be August 1st for the Natick Recreation & Parks “Family Performing Arts Series”.  The performance will be by the group “Two of a Kind”.  Preformances begin at 6:30pm.  In case of rain, performances will be located at the Morse Library.
