November-Gratitude Month
Westfield High School is excited to focus on monthly themes that are aligned with our Life Ready skills. In addition, these themes match CORE content as well as national/global awareness months. November's monthly theme is Gratitude. Our CORE sessions this month will offer enrichment activities encompassing the Gratitude theme. Additionally, there is a monthly nomination form for those students and staff that demonstrate each of our monthly themes. For Gratitude month, these individuals would exhibit appreciation and thankfulness towards others. They would approach life with hope, encouragement and joy. Additionally, these individuals are enthusiastic and encouraging to others.
