VIDEO: Foreign Exchange Students Clean Up Chelmsford

Chelmsford town clean-up day is a chance for the residents to give back and keep their town spotless.

On a grey town clean-up day, three souls braved the low temperatures and driving rain. Sue Dawson, a foreign exchange student host, and foreign exchange students Malika Inoyatova, of Turkmenistan, and Yousef Abdel Shaheed, of Egypt, worked to clear leaves from the McCarthy Middle School tennis courts.

Dawson said that participating in town clean-up was a way of "giving back to the community." Patch was their to urge them on (and even drag a bag of leaves to the curb), and learn a little bit more about town clean-up and the foreign exchange program.

Scores of students, parents, and other members of the school community crowded three venues at the school enjoying each other's company, chowing down food, and just having a good time. The Parker Family Night at the Scholastic Book Fair, held from 5:30 p.m. to 8p.m., is an annual fall event that brings the school community together. It is one of two autumn gatherings hosted by the school, explained Principal Denise Rainis, with a KFC picnic in the beginning of the year preceding it.
