WHS Class of 2024
Senior Update 1
A Message from Principal Callaghan
Dear Members of the Class of 2024 and their Families,
Welcome back from what I hope was an enjoyable Summer vacation. This year, your last in the Westborough Public Schools, is the year you find out what your true passion is and where that passion will take you. Most of you will turn 18 this year, a fact that will facilitate the forging of character traits and approaches to work, relationships, and solving problems. It's a year full of exciting opportunities and possibilities. The memories created over the four years of high school will be long-lasting, and senior year is the best one of all. Please be intentional to find joy in your last year of high school.
Throughout the year, we will be sending special communication highlighting important information for our seniors and their families. These newsletters will be sent to the class and families directly and will be posted on our website under the Principal's Message for your reference, just click on the green Newsletter Icon.
In this update, you will find information about Senior Tie-Dye event, First Day activities including the foot parade down W. Main Street, the Counseling Department's Senior Night, and also a list of some upcoming important dates.
I want you all to know that WHS is ready to greet all of our students next week, especially our seniors whose leadership and mature role modeling will undoubtedly go a long way to setting a positive climate for the year ahead.
Congratulations and good luck on a fulfilling year ahead.
Best Regards,
Mr. Callaghan
Principal
