Message From the School Principal
The 2024-25 school year defined just how much resilience, flexibility and devotion Westwood School staff, students and families have. We thought that making it through the Global Pandemic was challenging, then suddenly on July 24th, before the 2024-25 school year began, we were faced with the devastating loss of our beloved school. With only a month to relocate, rebuild resources and restructure how we function as a school, Westwood School staff opened our doors to our students without missing a beat. We thank the numerous SDML staff, particularly at BW and JP Schools, as well as the SBO for all of their assistance and support during this continued transition period. We deeply understand the impact this circumstance has had on the District, as a whole.
With loss, comes regrowth. Along the way, we have made some new routines, some new partnerships/friendships and we have established new “normal”. We once again have a thriving and supportive Parent Advisory Council and we look forward to the recent news that our school rebuild may soon be underway. Throughout this 2025-26 school year, it will continue to be our goal to provide a stable, nurturing and engaging learning environment for our students, where everyone feels safe and welcome. With the support of our greater community and our dedicated staff, Westwood continues to be “A Great Place to Grow”.
Mrs. T. Griffin
