Dear Parents/Guardians,

It is a privilege to serve as the Principal of Berkeley Elementary School and to be a member of the Westwood Regional School District. Since joining the district in 2009, I have been proud to work alongside an exceptional staff, supportive families, and a caring community dedicated to providing every child with an outstanding educational experience.

Before coming to Westwood, I served as an elementary assistant principal and as both a general and special education teacher, working with students from Pre-K through Grade 5. With more than 30 years in education, I remain passionate about our school environment where every student feels valued, challenged, and inspired to reach their full potential.

Berkeley Elementary is a special place where meaningful relationships, high expectations, and a strong sense of belonging guide everything we do. Together, we strive to prepare our students to become confident, compassionate, and lifelong learners who are ready to meet the opportunities of an ever changing world.

I remain honored to be part of the Berkeley community and look forward to continuing our tradition of excellence as we live our school motto: "Everyone Belongs."

Mr. Michael J. Fiorello
