WHHS athletes participated in a meaningful session today with Melvin Wells from the New Haven Prevention Council, who led a discussion centered on mental health, emotional well-being, and the importance of open communication in sports. Students reflected on moments where they felt pressure or discomfort and engaged in thoughtful conversation about healthy ways to manage those experiences. The discussion also explored the different ways leadership shows up in athletics, emphasizing how supporting teammates and fostering a positive environment can help maximize everyone’s potential both on and off the field. 🧠⚽
Happy Prom Night, Juniors! Enjoy the night, have fun, and be safe 🌹👔👗
Last night, West Haven Public Schools held its annual Unsung Hero Award Dinner, bringing the community together to recognize individuals who make a difference each day. From teachers to front office staff to security guards and many more roles, our district is supported by people who care deeply about their work and the students they serve.
Those honored have gone above and beyond in their roles. Their efforts often take place behind the scenes, but they play an important part in keeping our schools running smoothly. While it is always a team effort, this night was set aside to recognize their contributions.
Thank you for the work you put in every day. It was an honor to celebrate you all. 👏🎉
