Join us as we celebrate a cherished tradition that brings joy and hope while sharing many holiday customs at our school.
As part of this event, we invite you to help make a difference in our community:
• Please consider donating warm jackets, hats, mittens, or gloves for The Downtown Evening Soup Kitchen.
• We are also collecting non-perishable food items.
Clothing does not need to be new—just clean and in good condition.
Thank you for helping us spread warmth and kindness this holiday season!
WHS is supporting the Connecticut Children's Medical Center. We will have pajama day on December 12, 2025 (whole school) and December 19, 2025 (grades 5th + 6th only) to raise money. Bring a S1.00 on Friday to wear your favorite pajamas.
We had a wonderful Family Literacy Night for K-2
A guest singer/rapper inspired creativity in Ms. Kegel’s classes
🎬 Our 8th Grade Cast Reveal brought big smiles and anticipation for Alice in Wonderland
The Grade 1 & 6 Buddy Activity strengthened friendships across grades
All in a week at WHS — where learning meets unforgettable!
Our K–2 Family Literacy Night was a huge success! 📚✨
Families spent the evening enjoying hot cocoa, cookies and reading together and identifying “Juicy Words”—rich Tier 2 vocabulary words that help deepen comprehension and spark meaningful conversations.
By the end of the event, we built an amazing list of juicy words contributed by our students and families! Our goal is to keep this list growing and to fill our school with juicy words we discover in our reading throughout the school year.
We are up for the challenge! Families also went home with new books and a notebook to keep track of juicy words that they find as they read at home!
