Westfield Academy and Central School

What a beautiful, sunny fall afternoon we had last week for our annual Red Ribbon Run! Our students showed incredible energy, teamwork, and school spirit as they ran together to celebrate healthy choices and positive lifestyles. Throughout the week, students proudly signed our Red Ribbon Pledge, committing to stay drug-free and making choices that support their bright futures. Thank you to our Phys Ed team, Ms. Gundlach and Mr. Winder, for their help in making the race a success. It was awesome to see so many families and community members there to cheer us on!

Westfield Athletics would like to thank our Girls Volleyball Seniors for their leadership, dedication, and commitment to our Girls Volleyball program: Mackenzie, Maddie, Arielle, and Abi! Congratulations on an awesome career! Thank you for everything!

Their energy, creativity, and teamwork made it such a fun night for our elementary students and their families! 💙🕸️🐾🎃

Mrs Lippert's third grade students had a special opportunity today to meet Sean Hollander, an Olympic luge athlete, through their participation in the Classroom Champions mentorship program. Sean is currently training in Italy as he works toward qualifying for Team USA for the 2026 Winter Olympics. During their visit, students were able to ask questions and learn more about Sean’s athletic journey and personal experiences. Throughout the school year, Sean will continue to connect with their classroom community by sharing videos focused on important social and emotional learning topics, including goal setting, perseverance, community, teamwork, and leadership. We look forward to supporting Sean in his Olympic efforts and, hopefully, watching him represent Team USA during the 2026 Winter Games!🇺🇸

The National Honor Society hosted its Annual Truck-or-Treat event last night. A good time was had be all! Thank you to the WACS faculty and staff for the candy donations!

MS/HS Key Club members raked yards in our community during their day off from school, Friday, October 24. This is a Service Based Club for students.

WACS 3rd and 4th graders took music learning to a whole new level of fun with Miss Bena! Using shaving cream, they practiced naming and writing notes on the treble clef staff. This engaging (and slightly silly!) activity helped reinforce the lines and spaces of the staff while letting students get creative, hands-on, and a little messy as they learned.
