The School Committee heard a brief review of the incoming freshmen class.

NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — McCann Technical School is looking forward to a solid number of freshman this coming school year. 
 
Principal Justin Kratz told the School Committee on Thursdsay he is currently looking at applications.
 
"We are going to look at what numbers are, how much room we have left and what we have for incoming freshmen," he said. "The applications are still trickling in and overall we are in good shape for next year."
 
He said there are even sophomores interested in going to McCann. 
 
"We have maybe 10 to 12 sophomores looking to come but is trickier for them because shops are not as open as they are for freshmen," he said. "I anticipate some won't come because the shops they want may not be open."
 
Thursday's brief meeting was the final one before before summer break and closed out the school year. 
 
"It was a heck of a year, it was a great year, it was a great year for student accomplishments ... and I could not be happier," Superintendent James Brosnan said. "I am very proud of what we did this year and I am looking forward to next year."
 
Kratz said the end of the school year went smoothly and that students took finals Friday and Monday. 
 
He said around 30 students were in the building Tuesday to make up finals or achieve perfect attendance.
 
Chairman Thomas Mahar thanked the administration for another great year. 
 
"I just want to thank you for all of the stuff that you do that we don't see that show how well things end up," he said. "I think you all do a wonderful job."
 
In other business, the committee reappointed Mahar as chairman and Gary Rivers as vice chairman.
