Acton-Boxborough Trivia Team’s High School Quiz Show Competitors Make School History
After being eliminated in the first round of competition last year, the current team made it to the quarterfinals before falling to their counterparts from Rockport High School in a match televised on April 15, 2012.

In an email to parents this past Monday, Callen called her students’ success “unbelievable” and explained why it was just too much to ask her overscheduled staff to provide bus transportation and supervision to students who want to see their peers compete at out-of-town locations. “I do hope that families will consider attending together,” she wrote. Here is the latest information on the aforementioned competitions: Festival Play, Fuenteovejuna Proscenium Circus’ rendition of the Spanish classic, adapted for festival by ABRHS Spanish teacher …
