Reminder: Staffing Update
After 35 years in Westwood Public Schools, Mrs. Hardy (Deerfield Grade 2 Teacher), is retiring…next fall! While the exact date of Terese’s retirement is not yet finalized, we anticipate the good fortune of having Terese start the year in WPS (hopefully, at Deerfield!) and will have plenty of time to honor her. In the meantime, please join me in congratulating Mrs. Hardy on her extraordinary career and thanking her for her unbelievable commitment to our school and students over the past three and a half decades!
