Scholarships The Little Compton School Committee would like to congratulate this year's scholarship recipients! Ruth Coombs Bogle Memorial Scholarship There is no doubt that Rowan Manchester will share her compassion and knowledge with those in need of medical care. While maintaining excellent grades in honors classes throughout high school, she volunteered at her church, participated in a wide variety of extra curricular activities ranging from Varsity Cheerleading to the National Honor Society, and helped out at Wilbur & McMahon (where she was a grade 8 valedictorian) by judging the science fair. Rowan plans to attend either Salve Regina University or URI, and pursue a career in health care. Specifically, Rowan wishes to specialize in Labor and Delivery, and earn her Master’s degree to work as a Nurse Practitioner. Eventually, she hopes to earn her Doctorate. James Webster Coombs Memorial Scholarship Caroline Sullivan is an excellent student whose extracurricular activities included being an Executive Student Ambassador for 4 years, peer mentoring, leading retreats, and managing four theatrical productions over two years. This was while playing a sport each year, and performing community service. We could often see her here at Wilbur & McMahon volunteering at the after-school library program. Caroline’s drive to lead, teach and nurture has led her to pursue a career in Nursing with a goal of becoming a Labor and Delivery or Pediatric Nurse. Leslie Briggs Coombs Memorial Scholarship Rose Manning has excelled as a student and three-season athlete, earning NEPSAC (New England Preparatory School Athletic Council) honors for Lacrosse. She also played basketball and field hockey for all four years of high school. Rose plans to attend Middlebury College and study Economics. Her ultimate goal is to work in an environment where finance and global policy intersect. Doris E. Simmons Memorial Educational Scholarship Colby Nixon’s career goal after attending the University of Vermont is to become a mechanical engineer. Academically strong and active in lacrosse, basketball and the ski and snowboard club, Colby also explored different parts of the world through service projects. This international experience took him to Costa Rica and Vietnam, where he undoubtedly saw the global value of engineering. Anthony Raposa Scholarship Timothy Roberts has always been interested in aviation. This has led him to pursue his private pilot license at T.F. Green International Airport and seek out mentorship opportunities with JetBlue and FedEx. In addition to volunteering for his church, Timothy keeps his feet on the ground as a lifeguard. He plans to attend Embry Riddle Aeronautical University and become a commercial pilot.

...from the Principal's Desk Message from the Principal First and foremost, I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself. My name is John P. McKinnon and I am honored to be the new Principal at the Wilbur and McMahon School. I am a resident of Little Compton, a proud graduate of Wilbur and McMahon School, and a proud parent of five children, who all attended Wilbur and McMahon School. I have been in education for the last 35 years and have served as a school administrator for the past 19 years. Over my journey in education, I have taught at the elementary and high school levels, worked in an administrative role as a high school assistant principal, and most recently have served as Principal of Harris Elementary School in Woonsocket, RI. As an educational leader, it is essential that our school be a collaborative, safe, and healthy environment — a place where positive relationships are fostered for academic and social growth, and an educational and enriching space where every student is excited to learn. The Wilbur and McMahon School has always prepared students to meet the challenges in education and in life. This is due to not only the many dedicated teachers and staff members, but also to our parents and caretakers who are actively involved in the success of their students. This is a partnership that will enable our students to be successful in any path that they choose. I am excited and eager to begin as the Principal of Wilbur and McMahon School later this week. I look forward to working with our students, our teachers and our families. It will be a privilege to work in the school community that has had such an important role in the growth of all of our children. Sincerely, John McKinnon Principal Wilbur and McMahon School Contact jmckinnon@lcsd.k12.ri.us 401.592.0363 I'm always looking for new and exciting opportunities for the school and Little Compton Community. Parents are always welcome to contact me for any reason.

It is a privilege to serve a community that so clearly values education and has demonstrated that commitment through the district’s long-standing success and strong reputation for excellence. Since stepping into this role, I have already had the pleasure of meeting many members of our staff and spending time with our students. I have been struck by how welcoming, supportive, and engaged everyone has been. The positive school climate and sense of pride in the Little Compton schools are evident, and they speak volumes about the strength of this community. Open communication and transparency will be central to my work as Acting Superintendent. I believe that strong partnerships between schools and families are essential to student success, and I am committed to listening, sharing information openly, and working collaboratively with parents, staff, and community members. I am also fortunate to work alongside a School Committee that is deeply committed to the success of all students and to maintaining excellence across the district. Their dedication to thoughtful governance and continuous improvement provides a strong foundation for our schools. I look forward to getting to know you in the coming months and to working together in support of our students and schools. Please do not hesitate to reach out with questions, ideas, or concerns. Thank you for the warm welcome and for your continued support of the Little Compton School District. Warm regards, Rosemarie K. Kraeger Superintendent's Goals
