"The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go." — Dr. Seuss
This week has been filled with books at Westfield Elementary as we celebrated READ ACROSS AMERICA week at Westfield Elementary!
Here is a glipse at some of the fun we've been having reading together this week. From our spirit days, to the PTO Book Fair, to our classroom guest readers, Family Literacy Night, our hallway read-in, and more!
It is safe to say that We 💙 Reading!
📖 Today, our elementary students had a special assembly in the auditorium as part of our READ ACROSS AMERICA week. Travis Carlson, from Pan-American Film, visited WACS, reading his book Mafia in the Multiverse and sharing his journey as an author and film-maker.
After reading his story about Josh from Allentown, Travis answered questions about his inspiration, his artwork, his work with the Buffalo Bills, and so much more. As a local author, Travis is the perfect example of how hardwork can help you to make your dreams come true.
A huge thank you to Travis for an unforgettable visit today!

💙Happy School Social Worker Week! 💙
This week, we celebrate the impact of school social workers, and we are especially grateful for Miss Shelters and Ms. Asel here at Westfield!
Every day, these two support our students with kindness, patience, and dedication—helping them navigate challenges, build confidence, and find success in and out of the classroom. Their compassion and commitment make a difference in so many lives, and we are beyond lucky to have them on our team!
Thank you, Miss Shelters and Ms. Asel, for all that you do for us at WACS! ❤️ 🐾
We are excited to share an update on Adan Austin's internship experience with our Transportation Supervisor, Jake Alonge, at the Bus Garage.
Since October, Adan has been gaining hands-on experience by assisting with mechanical work, including performing preventative maintenance inspections, working on brakes, handling tire-related tasks, and assisting with NYSDOT inspections. This practical experience is invaluable as it helps Adan build his skills in the field of transportation maintenance.
A special thanks to the CCAPT ( Chautauqua Cattaraugus Association of Pupil Transportation), Cummins Jamestown Engine Plant and Jake Alonge for providing Adan with the opportunity to tour the engine plant, where he learned about the engine manufacturing process. During the tour, Adan had the chance to see how engines are built and how some components are made. He also got a firsthand look at the technologies being developed for zero emissions buses as well as cleaner engines.
We are proud of Adan's hard work and dedication and look forward to seeing all the great things he will continue to learn during his internship.

⭐READ ACROSS AMERICA SPIRIT WEEK⭐
March 3-7
This week, our 5th graders in the EnviroWolverines Club shared their passion for wildlife conservation by presenting their Endangered Species Coloring Books to younger students! 🦉🌱
Each book is a special collection of EnviroWolverine members' original drawings and facts about animals at risk of extinction. 🐅🐢 Through this project, our students hope to educate and inspire their younger peers—while making learning fun! 🎨📖 Each student received their own book to take home.
Incredible work, EnviroWolverines! 💚 Let’s keep spreading awareness and protecting our planet’s creatures! 🌍✨
