A local man was among two people inducted into the Mercymount Hall of Fame for a long history of service to the school.
Gregory Pope was honored during the annual open house festivities for Mercymount, along with Geraldine Szpila Roszkowski of Cumberland, R.I. Pope, who lives in North Attleboro and is married to Linda, has been actively volunteering at the school since 1997, where his three children - Brittany, Amanda and Gregory - are now alumni of the school. Pope gave much of his time to the sports programs, beginning as a coach for biddyball. Over the years, he has also been involved with the tennis, basketball and volleyball teams, serving on the sports committee; he later became the chairman of the committee for five years. News Briefs

NORTH ATTLEBORO - After eight years at the helm of North Attleboro High School, Principal Robert Gay has announced he will retire at the end of the school year.
Gay's letter of resignation, which will be effective June 30, was officially accepted by the school committee on Thursday - but not before school committee member William Kummer asked him to reconsider. Gay declined to reconsider, saying it was time for him to retire. He thanked the school committee, his fellow administrators and high school staff for setting high standards and being supportive throughout his tenure. He also thanked parents and students as well, saying, "If it wasn't for the students, I would have been out of this profession years ago - seeing the students everyday, that's what I'll miss the most."
