Dear West Shore Families,
I hope you enjoyed the extra hour of sleep last weekend! Those darker afternoons are taking some getting used to, but it’s been a good week at West Shore. Students took part in an engaging Advisory lesson, and the start of a new marking period gave them a chance to reflect on how the year is going and set a goal for the weeks ahead. If you’re looking for a conversation starter this weekend, ask your child what they’re proud of from the first marking period and what they’d like to work on next.
West Shore Pet Calendar
Let’s see those Wildcat pets! We’re putting together a West Shore Pet Calendar featuring the furry, feathered, and scaly members of our school community. All proceeds will support the Milford Animal Shelter.
Submit a pet photo for $5 per photo. Email it to plourde@milforded.org or drichardson@milforded.org and include your name and your pet’s name.
Purchase a calendar for $10. Calendars will be distributed before Winter Break.
Drop off payment at the Main Office. Please pay by cash or check made payable to West Shore.
Photos and payments are due Friday, December 4, 2026. We can’t wait to see your pets!
Food Collection
It’s time for our Annual Thanks For Giving Food Collection! As we enter the season of gratitude and giving, we encourage everyone to contribute what they can to help support those in need in our community. The donation box will be located outside the main office now through Thursday, November 13th. You’ll also see posters throughout our hallways serving as friendly reminders. Every donation makes a difference, so please give what you can. Thank you for helping West Shore spread kindness and generosity this holiday season!
Have a restful weekend, Wildcats!
Warmly,
Mrs. Keramis
