Widefield High School Gladiators

Gladiators!

We invite any WSD3 student that needs a sports physical for the 2026-2027 school year to our annual physical day on Saturday, August 1st from 9am-11:30am in Bowers Gymnasium!

Even if you are not participating in a fall sport, this is a great way to help you stay ahead and be prepared for your sports season, as any physical done on this day will be active all school year!

The cost for a physical is $20, cash only! Hope to see you there!

Last week, cadets from the Widefield High School NJROTC Program participated in the Area 20 Sail Academy at Lake Cochiti in New Mexico. During the five day course, our cadets developed their leadership skills, created new friendships and learned the fundamentals of sailing. Our cadets earned their US Sailing Small Boat Sailor certification and their NJROTC Leadership Cord. Way to go Glads!!!

Last night, the Widefield Gladiator family came together to celebrate an outstanding group of students at Senior Awards Night. 🎓🏅

From scholarships and academic honors to military enlistments and academic lettering, the evening was a reflection of the hard work, dedication, and bright futures of the Class of 2026. We are incredibly proud of all that these students have accomplished during their time at Widefield High School.

Thank you to all of the parents, families, and friends who joined us in celebrating these amazing students and their achievements. We also extend a huge thank you to our community partners for their continued support and for awarding so many generous scholarships to our Gladiators.

The future is bright for these Gladiators, and we can’t wait to see all they accomplish next!

Wednesday night was a special evening at WHS 💙 we celebrated five incredible scholar athletes who will trade caps and gowns for baseball uniforms on Saturday as they compete in the Regional Playoffs. ⚾️🎓

While they may miss walking across the graduation stage with their classmates, last night we honored their hard work, dedication, and commitment both in the classroom and on the field. We are proud of these young men and excited to watch them continue representing our school at the highest level.

Congratulations, graduates — now go bring home a win!
