Student Showcase
Welcome to the WWPS student showcase page of the district website. On this page we will highlight the many talents of students in the WWPS. The selection of student work is sampled from all grade levels throughout the district and is a small representation of the high quality of the work done by students in the WWPS.

DMS Soccer Gives Back
Last Fall the DMS Girls Soccer team on 10/06/23 honored Lindsay Richards who is a teacher at Maisie Quinn school and a breast cancer survivor. At a pregame ceremony we presented Lindsay with some personal and homemade gifts and as a team we made a donation to Gloria Gemma Foundation in her name. Lindsay spoke to the team about supporting each other as a team and in life in the years to come. It made an impact on the players.
Valentines Kindness
Students in first grade at Greenbush School made Valentines that were delivered to the seniors at the West Warwick Senior Center. They colored cards, handmade crafts and sent along some "snowman soup" (hot chocolate) for them to enjoy. They said that they had enough for everyone that was coming in the next day and they were grateful for the kindness.
First Grade Team: Mrs. Calise/Mrs. Thomas; Mrs. Cronan, Mrs. Ford and Mrs. McCarthy
Students: ND (Making a card) ZH; AG; HK and BJ (clockwise making cards); and VO and SA(l-r filling bags with snowman soup)
Mentor Paint Night: Students and Mentors had a great night where they enjoyed dinner and then painted the night away!
Horgan Kindness Project: Horgan students are participating in a Feinstein project titled the Kindness Cafe...Share a Cup of Kindness. Each student created a cup and the cups were then labeled with random acts of kindness. Once a week, during lunch, a student's name from each class is called. The students choose a cup from the display and they are encouraged to complete the act of kindness as stated. Each student will have an opportunity to participate. The project should take about 20 weeks from start to finish! We should all be kind "a latte!"
The DMS Dixie Cup: The Annual Dixie Cup floor hockey tournament at Deering. We host a school wide tourney every year, and this is the 2nd year in a row where we have turned it into a fundraiser for the Matthew Denison Foundation for scholarships for deserving HS Seniors. Faculty and staff at Deering can sponsor and play for a team. We have a team of the week every Friday, where the team gets a trophy to showcase in their classroom, as well as T-shirts to decorate for their team. Winning teams get a Dixie Cup full of treats and MVP's are also given out with hockey ducks. Always a hit with the students and staff!
Grade 11 WWHS students ST and SC: In Environmental Science, students were tasked with choosing an organism to research and writing a "thank you" card to the organism for the ecosystem services it provides. Students had to identify which category of ecosystem service the organism would fall into and explain how they benefit personally from the service.
Grade 10 WWHS Student AL: Students learned about visual texture (an Element of Art) and had to incorporate three different types of media (sharpie, watercolor, color pencils) into their drawing creating a composition that will engage the viewer. While learning about watercolor, students practiced 5 different techniques and chose one of them to incorporate into their design.
