A LEGACY WORTH CELEBRATING!

Congratulations to BC High Lacrosse Head Coach and Weston METCO Alum Marcus Craigwell on being honored by the City of Boston for his outstanding accomplishments and lasting impact at Boston College High School.

Coach Craigwell’s legacy goes far beyond wins and championships. Under his leadership, BC High has produced multiple All-Americans and professional lacrosse players, enjoyed winning seasons year after year, and earned recognition through Coach of the Year honors.

And, of course, there’s the ultimate achievement — a State Championship. 🏆

From developing elite players to building a culture of excellence, Coach Craigwell has made an incredible impact on the BC High lacrosse program and the young men who have come through it.

Congratulations, Coach Craigwell, on this well-deserved recognition from the City of Boston. Your dedication, leadership, and commitment to excellence have left a lasting mark on BC High Lacrosse.

A coach. A mentor. A champion. A legacy.

Sixty years ago this September, the first METCO students boarded buses from Boston to suburban schools-launching a program that would transform generations.

That historic journey did not happen overnight. It took parents, students, educators, civil rights leaders, and community advocates speaking out against educational inequity, organizing, creating Operation Exodus, building coalitions, and refusing to accept that a child’s ZIP code should determine their opportunities.

In 1966, 280 students traveled to seven participating districts. Today, METCO continues to unite students, families, alumni, educators, and partner communities in the ongoing work of educational equity and opportunity.

As we celebrate 60 years, we honor the courage and determination of those who built this movement, the generations who carried it forward, and the young people shaping its future.

One METCO. Sixty years of breaking boundaries—and a lifetime of opportunity.
