Lunch Mob at the New Attleboro High School
100 Rathbun Willard Drive
Attleboro
We have to say this right up front. This school looks more like a college than a high school. Spectacular does not do it justice. We have children who graduated from Attleboro High and we wish they could have had the opportunity that this new high school is offering.
There were around 30 of us as well as 20 retired teachers. First, we enjoyed lunch at the Blue Pride Bistro. We recommend the Bistro to area residents who want a quick, delicious lunch that won't break the bank. The student servers were attentive and very nice to talk to.
After lunch, we toured the vocational side of Attleboro High School. Would you believe there are 15 vocational tracks taught at the high school?! Well, there are. We had a fabulous tour led by Director of Career and Technical Education Jeremy Guay. Everything in the high school is new and state-of-the-art. Awesome!
