Curtis is hosting a clothing drive to benefit children and young adults in Massachusetts. The drive starts on Monday, March 13 and runs through Friday, March 24. Items collected will be donated to Cradles to Crayons, which is a non-profit organization that provides essentials to Massachusetts children who are homeless or in low-income households.
Cradles to Crayons is requesting gently used or new clothing and shoes. For health reasons, the charity is asking that donated socks, pajamas and underwear be new. A collection bin for donations is located in the Curtis lobby. If you have questions, please contact Curtis Angels Advisor Ivar Henningson.
Thanks for your support!
Hello, Curtis parents! Your children are creating memories this school year. In order to create the yearbooks in time, they need to be ordered soon. The yearbook is created and designed with student input. With pictures taken all throughout the school, they are creating a memorable book for you and your children to look back on their year.
When ordering, please be sure to use your child's formal name. Jostens uses a computer database to produce the emails that are sent to you. If you order using your child's nickname, your child's name will not be removed from the list and you will continue to receive emails. After placing your order, please be sure to save your email receipt, if needed for future reference. Please email our yearbook coordinator, Liz Kerrigan, if you have any questions.
Let's remember this year together! All yearbook orders are placed online. The price is $50. Please click here to order your yearbook today!

Direct Appeal
Please consider a tax-deductible donation to the CPO to help support Curtis’ cultural, creative, and educational programming. The CPO supports a variety of programs and initiatives that are all important additions to the Curtis community and they truly improve the students’ experience at Curtis Middle School. This is all possible because of the generosity of the Curtis parent community.
We suggest a $75 donation—but no donation is too small—and all are appreciated! Also, please check if your company offers a matching donation. Click here to donate.
Please note that donation acknowledgment letters will be provided by request only. If you require a letter for tax purposes, please email a request to cpotreasurer@gmail.com.
(You can also make a donation when you order your directory!)
