Welcome to 8th GRADE FAMILIES!
Welcome to 8th Grade!
We’re excited to kick off this milestone year for our Weston Middle School 8th graders and their families! The final year of middle school is filled with learning, friendships, and memorable experiences as our students prepare for the transition to high school.
Throughout the year, the PTO will share updates on special events, important dates, and opportunities to celebrate the Class of 2030. From social gatherings and community projects to the 8th Grade Graduation Ceremony, there will be many ways for students and families to get involved.
Be sure to check this page often for the latest information, forms, and reminders. Together, we’ll make this a meaningful and unforgettable year for our 8th-grade class!
if you have questions, do not hesitate to contact Jen Rubin or Debbie De Long, 8th Grade Co-Chairs.
Leave Your Mark, Class of 2030!
In just a few short months, our 8th graders will begin an exciting new chapter at Weston High School. Before they go, the Class of 2030 has the opportunity to leave a meaningful and lasting gift at Weston Middle School.
This year’s class gift will support the addition of flexible seating in the WMS library. As part of a larger vision to create a true learning commons, these new seating options will provide welcoming spaces where students can read, study, collaborate, and connect.
The flexible seating will benefit both students and faculty now and can continue to serve the school community for years to come.
We hope every family will consider making a contribution to help make this special gift possible.
