Washington Elementary School hosted its first-ever 𝗚𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝘀 𝗡𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗢𝘂𝘁 last week! The annual Halloween event, which will be the first of many, was hosted by PTA and allowed families to come decorate tables, give out candy, play games, or do crafts! Also pictured are Mrs. Healy, Mrs. Reynolds, and Ms. Britton showing students how to carve a pumpkin! The kids first watched a video before getting their hands into the mix. Students will then write about it with step-by-step instructions on how to carve a pumpkin.

On Wednesday, October 26, 2022, 33 students in French II and III at West Haven High School toured the Hill-Stead Museum in Farmington, CT! The family who lived in the Hill-Stead home until 1946 traveled to Europe and collected many interesting artifacts, including several original French impressionist paintings. Theodate Pope Riddle, one of the nation’s first female architects, designed the home as a country home for her parents. After their tour, students enjoyed an authentic French crepe and beverage at Crepes Choupette in New Haven!

Thank you to Nick Conti (Project Executive) and DJ Gray (Superintendent) of Gilbane Building for visiting our 3rd graders at Washington Elementary School today! Mr. Conti and Mr. Gray raised awareness about the construction trade and profession through a presentation including a short video and a marshmallow challenge game, in which students had to build the tallest structures using marshmallows and spaghetti! The Gilbane Building Company built the new West Haven High School and will also work on building the new Washington Elementary School.
