Students in Mrs Marana's Freshmen GI class spent some time with representatives from the senior class this week. The freshman created a list of questions concerning anything in high school (classes, extracurricular activities, conflicts, dealing with tough situations, college/trades) earlier in the week and then used those questions to guide their talks. Thank you seniors for taking the time to meet with this group! Hopefully they learned something that will help them successfully navigate the next several years of high school!

In preparation for the state mandated SAT/PSAT testing this spring, we will be administering practice tests to all students in grades 9-11. The purpose of the practice test is to familiarize our students with the digital platform used to take the test, get them used to working under the same time constraints as the official test, and exposed them to the types of questions they will see when they take the test in the spring. The schedule is as follows:

Tuesday, February 11th - 9th grade PSAT 9

Thursday, February 13th - 11th grade SAT

Friday, February 14th - 10th grade PSAT 10

Testing will begin first hour and will be concluded by the start of 4th hour. A list of room assignments will be posted this week. Classroom assignemtns will be posted prior to testing.

WHS Students: Please do your best to attend school on count day. Attendance on count day helps determine funding for our school and ensures we have access to the resources we need to maintain the high quality education we offer at Westwood High School. Please do your best to be in school on Wednesday, February 12th.

POA Students: You are expected to complete an assignment in each online course on Wednesday, February 12th. If you're a traditional face to face student (at WHS), you'll need to report to the media center during that scheduled period and sign in with me. Failure to complete an assignment on that day will result in a temporary suspension of the course until we can meet with you and your parents to discuss a plan moving forward.

Student will be released at 11:55 am on Friday, February 14th.
