We had a special WRMS visitor thanks to Ms. Garcia! Author Craig Grossi, the voice behind "Craig and Fred," spoke to our 6th-grade students about his moving memoir. "Craig and Fred" recounts the true journey of a U.S. Marine and his unlikely companion, a stray dog found in Afghanistan. Craig's story is a testament to the power of love, hope, and unwavering positivity. A huge thank you to Craig for sharing his story! You can discover more about Craig, his work, and his books at fredtheafghan.com. #AuthorVisit #CraigGrossi #CraigAndFred #6thGradeELA #LoveAndHope #InspiringStories

Congratulations to the champions of the 2024-2025 debate season, Angel Morales and Daniel Shotkin, who came in first place at Friday’s varsity championship tournament here at Westwood High School.
