Dear Westwood Regional Parents and Staff:

All before school clubs and Champions before care programs will be canceled. The after school care program and all after school activities will be held as usual.
Lunch will be served in all schools.
All students will be dismissed at their normal time.
All bus pick-ups will be 90 minutes after normal time.

Thank you to members of the WRMS Chamber Ensemble for spreading holiday cheer with their music yesterday morning as staff and students were coming into school. We wish you all a happy and healthy 2024!
Middle school faculty and staff played a little game today. Alliances were formed, strategies were devised, and a lot of laughs were had. Thank you to all those who took part in the fun!
To top off last week's holiday showcase, Mr. Barbieri, Mrs. Peterson, and Mrs. Yoo organized a food collection.
Thank you to Mrs. Amato, the police department, and teachers who organized the middle school's Volleyball for a Cause event. We had a blast yesterday and collected lots of donations! Is anyone surprised that Miss Dripchak played volleyball for 12 years? What amazing serves!
Students in the Science club looked at how the mass and height of meteorites impact crater size. We looked at the effect on earth and the moon. Great job club members!
Last night's Holiday Showcase was a wonderful opportunity for students to show off their musical talents. We would be remiss if we did not mention that our music team also received PSO mini-grants. Pictured here are some brand new music stands! Thank you, PSO!
Check out another great purchase made by another well-deserving PSO mini-grant recipient -- Ms. Buonforte. We are excited to expand our flexible seating opportunities for students. Thank you, PSO and Ms. Buonforte!
Congratulations Mrs. Cooper for being nominated as the middle school Governor's Educator of the Year, also known as Teacher of the Year! We hope you and all nominees enjoy reading the many beautiful submissions written by students, parents, and staff. Thank you all!
Now entering the tank! WRMS 2nd Business Fair is in full effect! Best of luck to our upcoming entrepreneurs. Thank you to Mr. Baez, Ms. Buonforte, and Mr. Collier.
Thank you to the organizers of the "Home for the Holidays Parade" for inviting the middle school girls' soccer team to participate. They have brought so much pride to the community! Thank you everyone for your support!
Mr. Hackbarth and his doppelganger, Ryan Reynolds! Ryan helped teach geography today!
Thank you to our PSO who provided a "mini-grant" which Ms. Fabrocini used to purchase Ubuntu cards for our advisory program. These cards encourage students to interact and make connections. There are many more mini grants we look forward to posting about! Thank you, PSO!
Our middle school dance program is a tremendous success. Check out this choreographed dance that students came up with just a few days into the marking period. We can't wait to see what incredible performances they will plan by the end of the marking period!

Our recent rehearsal was a major success! Look how proud Mrs. Peterson is of her talented students!
During Spirit Week the Student Council included a new activity to help our local community. Each grade earned points by collecting food which was donated to a local food pantry for the holidays. The teachers also joined in by collecting to purchase a gift card!
Reminder: Tonight, November 28th at 6:30pm for ALL district parents.
