Savin Rock Community School opened its 1976 time capsule today alongside staff, guests, and selected fourth-grade representatives! We were excited to welcome John Deppen, a teacher at Savin Rock in 1976, who joined Principal Tom Hunt in opening the capsule and uncovering pieces of the school’s history. Inside, they discovered artifacts from 1976, including predictions about 2026, letters to their future selves, postcards, and so much more! On display today are artifacts from 2026 that will eventually be sealed in a new time capsule, along with selected items from 1976, to be opened in 2076. What a special way to connect generations and preserve memories for the future! Thank you to everyone who joined us for this memorable occasion. ⏳🐬

Today, 25 years later, we pause to remember September 11, 2001, and the lives forever changed by that day. Throughout West Haven Public Schools, students and staff found different ways to honor and learn from the events of 9/11, whether through educational videos, learning about the brave firefighters and police officers who made the ultimate sacrifice, hearing the inspiring legacy of the Man in the Red Bandanna, writing letters of appreciation to our first responders here in West Haven, listening to a PA announcement, or simply seeing the flag lowered and knowing why we honor this day. These moments, big and small, are important reminders that we must continue to teach, remember, and honor the lives and legacies connected to that day. 25 years later, we remember, we honor, and we will never forget. ❤️🤍💙

WHHS students, staff, and our school community came together to wear gray in support of our fellow classmate, Symra-Lynn “Sam” Mills, Class of 2027, as she continues to battle.

Sam, we want you to know that you have an entire school and community behind you, rooting for you every step of the way. Your Westies family is thinking of you, standing with you, and sending you all of our love and strength. 🩶

Keep fighting, Sam. We’re all behind you. 🩶💙
