Dear Westbury School District Families and School Community,
On behalf of the Westbury Board of Education and Leadership Team, I welcome you to the 2022-23 school year. Please accept my gratitude for your trust and support of our amazing District in the previous school year.
I continue to be impressed with the high level of pride and dedication to the school district by the community, school board, staff, faculty and scholars. Together, we exceeded expectations for the 2021-22 school year. I am confident we will take Westbury Union Free School District to its next level of excellence in the new school year.
Our team of administrators, clerical, security and custodial staff have been extremely busy this summer preparing our buildings for the opening of schools on Thursday, September 1, 2022. We are excited about the new school year as it promises to be another monumental year of learning, growth and collaboration. There are many enhancements in store for Westbury School District in the 2022-23 school year. To name a few, the Westbury Union Free School District will launch new initiatives in the areas of English Language Arts and Mathematics as well as an electrical training certificate program for high school students. Moreover, we are excited to reinstate the expansion of world languages at the middle school. In order to improve how we communicate with our families and school community, you will see a brand new website, school district mobile app and a specific transportation mobile app for school bus tracking. We will continue to place a strong emphasis on social emotional wellbeing for all.
Please use this 2022-23 School Calendar as a reference guide for important information about our schools, scholars and planned activities. You are encouraged to visit our website, www.westburyschools.org, for the most up-to-date news and information. Please visit our social media platforms on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter as well.
The Westbury Union Free School District is committed to collaborative work which will result in high quality programs that empower all scholars to succeed. This focus will allow us to continue to serve our scholars, families and community at the highest level. Again, I thank you for your trust and support of the Westbury School District. Should you have any questions, please feel free to call your child’s school or any other department listed in the calendar. Additionally, I am available to assist you. May this school year yield happiness and success for our school district, our community and especially our scholars.
Sincerely,
Dr. Tahira A. DuPree Chase
Superintendent of Schools
