Westfield High School Director of Choral Activities Korey Bruno can’t contain her excitement about the new Yamaha GCI 5 foot, 3 inch baby grand piano in her classroom, purchased through School Choice funds at the end of last year. “Our superintendent rocks!” Bruno said. https://www.masslive.com/westfieldnews/2022/09/westfield-high-school-chorus-tuning-up-for-year-with-new-baby-grand-piano.html

Westfield High School Principal Charles Jendrysik has announced that two new assistant principals have joined the administrative team. Dr. Tonia Bonner relocated with her husband to western Massachusetts from North Carolina a little over two years ago. She comes to Westfield High School with over 20 years in secondary education as a chemistry/physics teacher, general science teacher, middle school teacher and instructional coach, and as a high school assistant principal. “I’m enjoying it so far, my husband and me. We’ve been here a little over two years. We’re finding it a nice place to call home,” Bonner said. She said she originally came to the area because she was offered a job at a nonprofit but found that she missed being in education. “I was hearing about a lot of the concerns in education due to COVID, and there was a pull on my heart to return. After being in education for over 20 years, I began to miss it, the interaction with the children, the sounds of the hallway, sounds of the ball game,” she said, adding that she believes she’s “one of those people who is supposed to be in a school building, doing something.” In her spare time, she enjoys running, reading, and keeping up with the happenings in the lives of her five adult children and nine grandchildren. Andrew Joseph is entering his 12th year as an educator at Westfield High School. He has served as an advisor for the student council, coach of the boys’ soccer team, supervisor of the summer school program, and teacher in the math department. He has been hired as an interim assistant principal for one year to fill an opening. Joseph enjoys the outdoors and spending time with friends and family. Citing “the wise words of (former WHS Principal) Tom Daley,” Joseph said he is looking forward to working with everyone at the school to help make Westfield High “just a little bit better.” Andrew Joseph lives in Westfield with his wife, Kaycee. They are expecting their first child in September. “Mrs. Bonner and Mr. Joseph are outstanding additions to our administrative team. Each of them has demonstrated strong leadership and dedication to students and families throughout their careers. I am excited to work with them and grateful to have such a student-centered administrative team,” Jendrysik said. https://www.masslive.com/westfieldnews/2022/08/whs-principal-announces-two-additions-to-administrative-team.html
