At Stapleton, we are committed to creating a school community where every student and family feels welcomed, connected, and a strong sense of belonging. Your voice is an important part of that work.

We are inviting caregivers to complete a brief survey to share feedback about your experiences with our school community. Your input will help us better understand what is working well and where we can continue to grow as we work to strengthen relationships, communication, and a sense of belonging for all.

Thank you for your time, honesty, and continued partnership.

As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Lisa DiDonato, Principal (ldidonato@framingham.k12.ma.us)

2026-2027 Bus Registration

Bus registration for next school year is now open. Please remember that families must register every year for bus transportation. The registration deadline is June 18th. Students will not be assigned to a bus unless a request for bus transportation is received and approved by the Transportation Department.

When completing the registration, please indicate whether your child needs transportation to school (AM), from school (PM), or both.

The bus registration form is in Aspen X2.

Sign into Aspen X2, your login ID is your student’s 6-digit LASID (lunch number/ number on school ID) and the default password is your child’s birthday in YYYYMMDD format (year, month, day). For example, if your child’s birthday is March 20, 2010, the password would be 20100320.

Click the picture below for more information about how to register for a bus.




Student Cell Phone & Smart Watch Use

Students are not permitted to use cell phones or smartwatches during the school day. We have included smartwatches in this policy because many models now have the ability to text, call, and take photos, just like cell phones. If a student is found using their phone or smartwatch during the day, they will be asked to put it away. If the issue becomes persistent, the device will be held in the office until the end of the day, and caregivers will be notified.

Thank you for your support in helping us minimize distractions and maintain a focused learning environment.



School Goal for 2025-2026


This year, our shared focus at Stapleton is captured in the following student-centered goal:

“As a Stapleton student, I believe in myself and take an active role in my learning.”

Students in grades 3-5 are currently making goals for MCAS and strategies they can use during testing days.
