From cable to YouTube, Marlborough schools get the word out
Hudson football coach retires ‘The whole town of Hudson is going to miss him’ By Caroline Gordon Reporter
MARLBOROUGH – When it comes to getting the word out about programs and events, Marlborough Public Schools has a variety of options at hand. During the Dec. 13 School Committee meeting, Communications Coordinator Jill Morin presented an overview on how students, staff and families use social media and WMCT, the city’s cable access studio. Morin said the most popular videos and photos include faculty achievements, upcoming events, special guests at MPS and classroom projects. “Instagram is popular with students,” said Morin.
HUDSON - After 25 years of Friday night lights, Hudson High School’s Head Football Coach Dan McAnespie is retiring. “I feel it’s time,” he said. The day he broke the news to his team was tough, he said. “There was some shock and some disbelief. At times when I was saying it, I was in disbelief too,” McAnespie said. Captain Ty Mullahy called being coached by McAnespie a “special experience.” “He’s a genuine guy. It was really nice to have him as a head coach. I think the whole town of Hudson is going to miss him,” he said.
