Mr. Joseph E. Wilkins of Weymouth passed away suddenly in his home on February 19, 2025. He was 43.

A beloved member of the Weymouth High School community, Joe had a long and meaningful connection to WHS, having graduated as part of the Class of 1999. After completing his studies at Brown University, he returned to his roots and began teaching in the Math Department at WHS in 2003.

Joe's dedication to the community was evident in everything he did. He was passionate about his students and teaching math and computer science. During his tenure, he coached both the Math Team and the High School Quiz Team. As a committed member of the Weymouth Educators Association (WEA), Joe served as a past President and was always advocating for his colleagues and the profession. For the last three years, he held the role of Math Department Head, where he continued to make a lasting impact on both his department and the entire school. Joe was also one of the founding members of Seeking and Striving to Prepare Children (SSPC) who centered all of their work in supporting children and families in the Weymouth community.

We are establishing a fund to benefit students in Weymouth Public Schools.
