Marie Anderson is WUHSMS 2025 Teacher of the Year!
In June, Marie Anderson was recognized by her colleagues as the 2024-25 Teacher of the Year for her colleagueship, professional knowledge in her subject area of French and her dedication to her students in the classroom, as leader of numerous educational exchanges to France and as co-advisor of Student Council. The entire Modern and Classical Languages Department sang a song in her honor with the refrain, “Sacré bleu! She’s très magnifique! She’s got that je ne sais quoi, sounique! Congratulations Madame Anderson and best wishes for your retirement!
“Marie is all heart. And that heart overflows with love for her family, her friends, her students, her colleagues, well just about anyone who enters her orb. Marie doesn’t wear her heart on her sleeve; you see it on her face each time she smiles at you and gives you her full attention. Her full and beautiful heart is the engine that drives her.”
“I am so excited that we get to recognize Marie for her dedication to so many aspects of our school for many years. While she’s been at WUHSMS for 14 years, many of you may not know that she’s actually been in the district for 25 years, having taught at both Killington and Reading Elementary schools. In her time here Marie has been an incredibly supportive colleague, enormously organized department head, passionate teacher, and dear friend of mine.””
The Last Hurrah: Class of 2025 Celebrated Their Final Week at WUHS
The Class of 2025 kicked off their final week at Woodstock Union High School with a class trip to Jiminy Peak, MASS MoCa, and dinner at Off The Rails. While the day was soggy, spirits were high. Seniors received an impressive number of scholarships at Scholarship Night. Senior Celebration Night included a nostalgic slideshow of candid pictures from over-the-years, presentations of the Seal of Biliteracy, CRAFT honors, and Senior Class Awards, followed by pulled pork sandwiches, cake and lawn games.
The week culminated in a lovely graduation ceremony on the football field. Family and friends were present for inspiring student and faculty speeches, the always delightful speakchorus, and presentation of diplomas. Congratulations to the Class of 2025!
