At the district math meet on Wednesday afternoon, April 10th, student representatives from all four of Westwood's public elementary schools - Downey, Martha Jones, Pine Hill, and Sheehan - competed against each other at Thurston Middle School to see which would come out on top.
For fifth grade, the students of Pine Hill School took first place, giving the newly opened school academic accolades that most likely are among its first.
For both third and fourth grades, the students of Downey School were the victors.
For the first time, the competition was opened to second graders this year, but not all schools participated.

Has there been a breakdown of how much of the contaminated recycling comes from commercial vs. residential recycling bins?
