WFS Snapshot

Dear West Freehold School Families,

As we reach the end of another memorable school year, I want to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude to all of the staff, students, and families of West Freehold School. Together, we have created many cherished moments of learning and growth.

As we embark on the summer break, I encourage all of our students and families to take this time to rejuvenate, reconnect with loved ones, and enjoy the beautiful moments that summer brings. Whether it's exploring new places, diving into a good book, or simply relaxing under the warm sun, I hope this summer provides ample opportunities for joy and relaxation.

Remember, the journey of learning continues beyond the classroom walls. Take this time to explore, discover, and embrace new experiences. Stay safe, stay happy, and make the most of every moment.

Thank you once again for your unwavering support throughout the year. It has been a privilege to witness the growth and achievements of our students, and I look forward to welcoming everyone back refreshed and ready for another amazing school year ahead.

Wishing you all a joyful and rejuvenating summer!

Warm regards,

Anne Kuras, WFS Principal

As the 2023-2024 school year draws to a close, the Freehold Township School District would like to wish all of our families a restful, safe, and fun-filled summer. Whether you plan to spend the summer break by the pool, by the ocean, being active outdoors, or curled up on the couch with a good book, we hope all of our students and families make the most of the time away from school. Below, you'll find valuable information about how to keep your child(ren) engaged in learning during the break from school, in an effort to keep their brains engaged and to prevent any learning loss that may happen during the summer months. Please return to this document throughout the summer. It will be posted on the district website for easy access. Rest, relax, and connect with your kids this summer. For our graduating 8th graders, we wish you well in your future endeavors. For our returning students, we look forward to welcoming you back in September!

Research shows that students who read regularly over the summer return to school in the fall better prepared academically and with improved reading abilities! Our summer reading initiative aims to foster a culture of lifelong reading and encourage critical thinking about literature. Please click here for details and directions for completing the assignments. All assignments are due September 20, 2024.

Practicing math skills over the summer can help keep the brain's pathways for computation and mathematical vocabulary strong! This summer, students in middle school grade level math classes are encouraged to complete the recommended assignments. Students in middle school accelerated math classes have required assignments to complete during the summer break. All assignments are due September 23, 2024. Here is a link to access the summer resources for all students.
