Town Challenge
SATURDAY, MARCH 22nd AT 7:00 P.M. (Snow date will be March 23th)
The Weathersfield Proctor Library will have their 11th ANNUAL TOWN CHALLENGE. Local organizations are invited to participate, and we certainly hope you’ll join in the fun. The trivia topics will cover Weathersfield History, Geography, Spelling, Current Events/Sports, Literature and Music.
As you know, in addition to this being an exciting event for the whole community, it is a fundraiser for the Weathersfield Proctor Library. We are hopeful the businesses within our community will join in with donations for this much-anticipated event.
Of course, we also encourage each team member to collect additional support (family members, neighbors and/or friends), and there will be a prize for the team that raises the most money. A few years ago, we also offered door prizes (local products) to members of our audience and will again this year. And don’t forget the coveted prize for the team that displays the most TEAM SPIRIT!
Weathersfield School is looking to put together a student team with students in grades 7 & 8. Please let us (debrichardson8097@gmail.com) know by February 3rd if your organization plans to participate. Please provide your team captain’s name and email address, and Deb Richardson will then follow up to provide you with more information. Each team may have three members, plus an alternate.
8th Graders Visit River Valley Technical Center
Before our December Break, 8th graders were invited to visit and tour River Valley Technical Center (RVTC). RVTC accepts High School students in grades 10-12 from schools all over the area. The tour provided students knowledge about what a technical school experience looks like in high school. The visit was a great introduction to alternative pathways available in high school and ignited student's interest in not only high school opportunities but possible future careers they might pursue post graduation.
High School Fair
On Tuesday January 14th from 5-6pm, we will be hosting our annual High School Fair in the WS Multi-purpose room. This is a great opportunity for families to speak with representatives from local schools, sign students up for shadowing opportunities, and start planning for pre-enrollment in the High School of your choice. We are looking forward to seeing you there.
8th Grade Families

Windsor High School is hosting a shadow week for your 8th grade students during the week of February 3rd. Parents and Caregivers can reach out to WHS's registrar Suzanne Ambrose to set up a day to come in during that week. Families can choose either to do a half day, or a full day.
