Some amazing volunteers from the Brookside community joined us for a “Chalk the Walk” event, filling our sidewalks with beautiful artwork and uplifting affirmations to greet students as they arrive. ❤️🖤
A huge THANK YOU to our volunteers for helping us kick off the school year in such a positive and joyful way. We can’t wait to see our students tomorrow and start the year together! 🌟📚✏️

Welcome new students, families and incoming kindergarteners! I'm excited for you to visit our school and classrooms this afternoon from 1:30-3:00 pm and sorry I'm not there but I know Ms. Massaro, Ms. Gonzalez, Mr. Danny, and our teachers will be waiting patiently! Thank you Berkeley PSO and our Fifth Grade Buddies!

Over the past two days, our WRMS staff had the pleasure of welcoming our newest students and their families to middle school during our 6th Grade Student and Parent Orientations. It was a night filled with excitement as students received their locker assignments and found some special surprises waiting for them inside. Parents got a glimpse into what to expect during these important middle school years. We are so excited to introduce our new motto: "The Middle Matters." It's a reminder that these years are a crucial time for growth, discovery, and building a foundation for the future. We can't wait to see what this year holds for our incoming 6th-grade students! #TheMiddleMatters #WRMS #MiddleSchool #StudentOrientation #BackToSchool #WestwoodRegionalSchoolDistrict
