Freshman Joel LaChapelle of Northbridge shines in first start for Assumption

Former Northbridge High star quarterback Joel LaChapelle earned his first start for Assumption, and the freshman delivered while helping the Greyhounds to their sixth straight win. LaChapelle was 12-19 for 191 yards and a touchdown in Assumption’s 38-10 victory over Post Oct. 31. “The first quarter was a huge learning curve,” Assumption coach Andy McKenzie said. “Then he just got better and better.” LaChapelle also rushed for 44 yards and a TD. Two weeks ago at St. Anselm, LaChapelle came off the bench to complete 2 of 3 pass attempts for 12 yards and rush for a touchdown. Early in the season, LaChapelle had been battling with two other freshmen for the No. 3 quarterback position. When second-string QB Josiah Patrick went down with a knee injury four weeks ago, the 6-foot-3, 195-pound LaChapelle took on more reps and moved into the backup role behind junior Dom Santiago . “He embraced that role,” McKenzie said, “prepared and got better every day.” LaChapelle’s start against Post was a “coach’s decision,” McKenzie said, and LaChapelle will start for the Greyhounds, the first-place team in the Northeast-10 Conference, Nov. 7 against Franklin Pierce at Brian Kelly ’83 Stadium. At Northbridge, LaChapelle played for

‘This proposal terrifies me’: Students, teachers plead with BPS not to close Charlestown High School

Students and teachers are p leading with Boston Public Schools to keep Charlestown High School open. A long-term facilities plan proposes closing the school in June 2028 because enrollment has dropped significantly. A vote is scheduled for next month to consider that proposal. On Wednesday night , the school committee meeting was packed, with nearly 100 people signed up to speak as students, parents, and teachers urged the district to keep the school open. Superintendent Mary Skipper cited enrollment challenges and said this year’s entering K-2 cohort has 1,000 fewer students than a decade ago. But Skipper said closing schools and moving programs would consolidate resources to give each student more opportunities at every school. “Our long-term enrollment projections show that in order to best serve our students, we need to reduce the number of schools we operate,” said Skipper. When asked about the proposal, Boston Mayor Michelle Wu said, “For too long we have been kicking the can down the road and seeing public education dollars going to keeping half-empty buildings open.” Teachers and students shared their perspective with the school committee. Boston Teachers Union President Erik Berg said, “Four weeks to take a final vote on such a
