Today we were thrilled to welcome back the @WSPS_WSHS Class of 2024 for their annual ‘Grad Walk’ back through their old schools!

Congrats to 8th Grader Emma Chapman! Emma is a winner of the @TheRealNELMS ‘Distinguished Student Award’ which recognizes students for strong academic, citizenship, and character. The award is given to just a few students across New England and is NELMS' highest student honor!

Congratulations Mr. Colin Moge for being honored as the Massachusetts School Counselor of the Year in Devens this evening. We are so fortunate to have such a caring and dedicated person supporting our students each and every day.

West Side was well represented at the @MASchoolsK12 MA Dept. of Education Awards Night. Mr. Moge from @WSPS_WSHS and our own Mrs. Manning were recognized by the state by former Superintendent and current Commissioner Dr. Johnston! We even bumped into our old friend @MGeoghegan22

Such a great night honoring Mr. Taft at this year’s Harold W. Grinspoon Excellence in Teaching Awards!
