During this unprecedented time, WWS understands there are many families struggling and in need of supplies or other necessities, and many people who want to help.
The City of Westfield, Westfield Schools, Westfield Education Foundation, Westfield Washington Township, Student Impact, Youth Assistance and Open Doors have collaborated and created a resource “hub” for Westfield families. The Wellbeing Coalition website will serve as that hub and will house information and resources for all families and it also includes ways you can help. It’s full of great information for all families. Check it out and please share with your neighbors.
You will be receiving communication from your school(s) with eLearning details for the upcoming weeks. As always, please reach out to your student’s teacher with any questions or concerns.
