FALL MUSICAL: Guys & Dolls

November 19-21, 2026

Set in Damon Runyon's mythical New York City, Guys and Dolls is an oddball romantic comedy. Gambler, Nathan Detroit, tries to find the cash to set up the biggest craps game in town while the authorities breathe down his neck; meanwhile, his girlfriend and nightclub performer, Adelaide, laments that they've been engaged for fourteen years. Nathan turns to fellow gambler, Sky Masterson, for the dough, and Sky ends up chasing the straight-laced missionary, Sarah Brown, as a result. Guys and Dolls takes us from the heart of Times Square to the cafes of Havana, Cuba, and even into the sewers of New York City, but eventually everyone ends up right where they belong.

RECORD your NAME for COMMENCEMENT!

Seniors! Please head to your Canvas page for instructions on how to record your name for the May Commencement Ceremony. This will ensure our readers say your full name properly.


NOTE: You MIGHT want to use the Canvas app on your phone. It seems to be a lot easier and it works better!

TRANSCRIPT REQUESTS

Attention Senior Families: Transcript Requests

As seniors begin preparing for life after high school, it’s important that they request their high school transcripts correctly and on time.

To help with this process, we’ve provided a step-by-step guide for requesting transcripts through Scoir. You can access the guide using the link: Transcript Request Guide

FAFSA is Now Open

Please see the article under the Counseling section above about how to file your students FAFSA. All Seniors must file a FAFSA no matter their future plans.

TalkingPoints-Family Communication

Westfield Washington Schools use a program called TalkingPoints to communicate with families! TalkingPoints allows for seamless multilingual two-way communication between teachers and families. Families can choose to receive messages via SMS text messaging or through the free FAMILIES | TalkingPoints mobile app for Apple or Android.


This platform has enhanced translation capabilities, so families can receive and send messages in their preferred language. Additional tools like speech-to-text, text-to-speech, and closed captioned videos make this program accessible to all of our Westfield families.


The most important thing you can do to ensure you are receiving messages from your child’s teacher is to make sure your contact information for the “Father” and “Mother” fields in PowerSchool is correct. When a teacher sends out a message, TalkingPoints will automatically use those two phone numbers. If you’d like to add additional contacts, please reach out to your child’s teacher.
