Over the weekend of May 20 the West Side School Theater Association (WSSTA) brought down the house with the performance of Shrek Jr, The Musical... WOW! Everyone’s favorite Ogre, his best pal donkey, and all the fairytale creatures filled the “swamp” on stage, singing, dancing, and delivering humor that literally had you belly laughing! What a show!

West Side and Lloyd Harbor 4th graders became Colonials for the day at Old Bethpage Village Restoration on May 17. This was the highlight of their unit of study on Colonial Day life which also includes elementary school field trips to the Lloyd Manor House. Students learn about Colonial children’s chores and the games they played, various jobs of Colonials who learned trades such as a silversmith, shoemaker, miller, ship building, cross stitching, barn building, dress and hat making, and so many more.
The 28th Annual West Side Run was held on May 15 to the delight of the community! Both the 5K and 1 Mile Run went off without a hitch, attracting both young students, siblings, and residents of all ages. The smiles of joy and accomplishment were evident and Principal, Alison Hazut, was grateful to the WSSPTG, teachers, staff, alumni and parents for all their hard work and dedication to make this event happen each year.
