Welcome back from Summer-one that I trust brought you rest, relaxation, and many fond memories with family and friends.
It is my sincere hope that this letter finds you in a space or place that has you eager for the start of the 2022-2023 school year. It’s hard to fully express how excited I am for this coming school year. As mentioned in the mid-Summer newsletter a month ago, it’s been both busy and enjoyable preparing for the new opportunities this school year can bring. A year in which our efforts will simply focus on cherishing the classroom teaching and learning that WHS is known for. Together, we will work with diligence to meet the goals of our shared mission to foster growth, development, and learning in all students.
To guide those efforts throughout the year, the school-wide theme at WHS is, ‘Realizing the 4 Rs’:
- Refresh - find ways to enhance and grow ideas, beliefs, attitudes, and appropriate behaviors
- Reframe - be ready to partner in learning opportunities with a positive mindset
- Restore - look to develop sound habits, healthy boundaries, and Good Citizenship skills
- Reclaim - get back to what we do best in Westborough: high expectations matched with enormous encouragement and having a sense of responsibility and accountability.
WHS staff is expecting a straightforward and successful school year. We have much to be thankful for in regard to the progress made over the past 2+ years, albeit slower than we wished. Please know that we value and respect every one of our students, and we appreciate that students and families trust us with the most valuable community gifts… our children. WHS takes that responsibility seriously and will try our best every day to offer all students a safe place to learn, a high-quality education, plenty of guidance, support, encouragement, and compassionate accountability. WHS takes great pride in designing learning experiences that are purpose-driven in a positive school environment.
In this newsletter you will find a myriad of informational items to hopefully assist you in successfully preparing for the upcoming school year. Please take the time to read the information and share key dates and material with your student.
Lastly, please feel free to reach out to your child’s teacher, school counselor, or administrator if you have any questions whatsoever.
Best wishes for a successful school year ahead.
Sincerely,
Mr. Brian M. Callaghan
Principal
