Thanks to Westwood Public Schools and Michael Mao for contributing this news to Westwood Minute.
Westwood High School (WHS) recently held its Junior/Senior prom at Lake Pearl in Wrentham. Before dancing the night away, students stopped by WHS for the annual promenade – held this year inside the gymnasium because of inclement weather. But that didn’t dampen the enthusiasm of families, friends and residents who were in attendance to check out this year’s fashions and cheer on their students.
Enjoy the following photos of students walking the red carpet at this year's promenade, taken by Michael Mao.

This is progress and I am glad to see the Select Board moving in the right direction. However, a majority of voters at last Monday's Special Town Meeting voted to recommend that the Select Board immediately cease its lawsuit against the Westwood Land Trust.
What is the citizen's petition about? I checked the town website, and the only information I could find on town meeting articles was from last year. The public hearing dates for 2026 are posted as February 24-25.
Apparently, you need to submit a public records request through the town's FOIA portal. What a shame, since it should have been posted to the town website upon certification of petition signatures.
Westwood Minute has obtained a copy of the petition and has added a short description of it to the article. A copy of the petition is attached below the article.
