Hello Westfield families!

|
The weather still feels like summer, but fall activities are underway all over campus. Students are joining clubs, rehearsing for one-act play, learning music for the fall chorus concert, and playing fall sports. In classrooms throughout every division, student learning is ongoing daily as teachers utilize a blend of different learning tools, technology, collaboration, and meaningful activities. We are grateful for the opportunity to provide a quality educational experience in a Christian environment for each and every child. Thank you for your support of Westfield and for being partners with us in educating your children! #educationofmindandheart

Today’s throwback post is a salute to the first Hornet Football Team. The Hornets played their first region season in the Fall of 1973 under the tutelage of Coach Marvin Arrington. The young team completed the season 3-3 in the region and 6-4 overall. Our 2019 Hornet Football team will kick off their season this Friday at Terrell Academy in Dawson. We hope you will join us and help cheer the Hornets on to victory!

Fourth graders in Mrs. Wendy Bryan’s STEM enrichment class completed a STEM activity which included building towers out of index cards to support weight.
This type of classroom activity is an example of the hands-on learning that students in grades 4 through 8 will be doing in the soon-to-be completed STEM activity room! #STEMlearning #problemsolving #criticalthinking #handsonlearning
