A Message From Your Principal

Greetings Westport Wildcats!

I hope this message finds you well and enjoying these early days of summer. As your principal, I'm thrilled to welcome you back in the fall for what promises to be an exciting and rewarding school year at Westport Middle High School.

First and foremost, I wish each of you a relaxing, restful, and fun-filled summer break. Whether you spend time at the beach, travel to new places, dive into summer reading, or simply enjoy quality time with family and friends, I trust you will recharge your batteries and will be ready to soar into the new academic year.

As we prepare to open our doors for another year of learning and growth, I'm filled with optimism about what lies ahead. Our dedicated faculty and staff work tirelessly to create engaging lessons, exciting projects, and meaningful experiences that will challenge and inspire you.

At Westport Middle High School, we're committed to helping each student reach their full potential. This year, we're focusing on three key areas of growth:

1. Academic Excellence: We'll continue to provide a rigorous, engaging curriculum that prepares you for future success.

2. Social Development: Through collaborative projects, clubs, and school events, we'll foster a sense of community and help you build lasting friendships.

3. Emotional Well-being: Our counseling team is expanding its resources to support your mental health and provide tools for managing stress and anxiety.

We're thrilled to introduce several new programs this year, including:

- Expanded STEAM curriculum with hands-on learning opportunities

- A peer mentoring program to support MS and HS students

- Enhanced college and career readiness for our high school students through Innovation Career Pathways

Remember, each of you plays a crucial role in making Westport Middle High School a vibrant, inclusive, and supportive community. I encourage you to embrace new challenges, support your peers, and actively participate in school life.

As we embark on this new school year together, let's approach each day with enthusiasm, curiosity, and kindness. I can't wait to see the amazing things you'll accomplish this year.

Go Wildcats!

Welcome Back, Westport Middle High School Families!

Welcome back to another year at Westport Middle High School. I hope that you have had a chance to

relax and enjoy yourselves during these summer months; while also preparing for a great Wildcat year!

My name is Joseph (Joe) Jette, and it is with great excitement and gratitude that I introduce myself as the new Assistant Principal for the high school here at Westport Middle High School. I am truly honored to join a school community with such a strong tradition of excellence, pride, and student-centered values. As we begin a new academic year, I look forward to working alongside dedicated educators, supportive families, and—most importantly—our remarkable students.

High school is a pivotal time in a young person's life, not just academically, but socially and emotionally. I believe that our responsibility goes far beyond preparing students for tests and graduation; we are here to help them develop into thoughtful, resilient, and compassionate members of society. My goal is to support a school environment where every student feels seen, challenged, and inspired to grow into their best self.

I look forward to meeting each of you and learning more about what makes Westport such a special place. I am committed to maintaining open lines of communication and to being a consistent presence in the school and community. Together, I am confident we can make this school year one of growth, achievement, and shared success. Let’s make it a great year!

Warm regards,

Joseph W. Jette
