Make a Registration Appointment

3) After you have completed the online pre-registration form, contact our Registrar, Kerry Lewis at klewis@abschools.org or 978-264-335 x34110 to make a registration appointment.

Registration appointments are scheduled during school hours and on specific dates throughout the summer.  The student and at least one parent or guardian should plan to attend.

During your appointment, a counselor will review your paperwork, give an overview of the school (including teaming concept, the typical day at RJ Grey, clubs and activities, class and homework expectations), provide a tour of the building, and answer any of your questions.

8th grade students have the option to complete a Math Placement Assessment after the  tour if they wish to be considered for the algebra class. The Math Assessment will take up to one hour. Parents/guardians do not need to stay during the testing.

If  you have any questions about any of these documents or the registration process, please contact our Registrar, Kerry Lewis, at klewis@abschools.org at (978)264-3350 x 34110.
