End of the Year Principal's Message
Dear West Parents/Guardians,
Is it really the end of
another school year? It seems as if I just welcomed your children on their
first day of school. We ended this school year with many successful events;
i.e. Field Day. Move Up Day, Grade 5 Celebration. I wish to thank you all for
your continued support throughout the year.
I would especially like to
take this opportunity to thank all who have volunteered their time and efforts
this year. You have donated your time in many ways including: School Council,
PTO, Book Fair, Bingo for Books, Read to Win, chaperones for field trips, assisting
at field day, etc. Without you the many opportunities offered to our students
would not be possible. The West School Community is very grateful for all you
have done and continue to do.
I would be remiss if I did
not thank my staff for their outstanding dedication to the education and the well-being
of your children. They are true professionals in the finest sense of the word.
They are lifelong learners who spend many hours outside of the school day in
preparation for their responsibilities and commitment to their students. I am
proud to be their “educational leader”.
Due to the expected movement
of students into and out of the West district throughout the summer, class
assignments will not be completed until August. In preparation for the
2014-2015 school year, you will receive a welcome back letter towards the end
August with pertinent information including your child’s teacher/class
assignment.
As always, if you
have any questions or if I can be of any assistance, please don’t hesitate to
contact me. Have a wonderful summer!
Sincerely,
Margaret Morgan
Margaret Morgan, Principal

Volcanic Eruptions at the West!
Mr. Booth’s 2nd grade classroom studied the tectonic plates and how they relate to volcanic activity.
The two week unit
erupted in a fitting finale when the students’ working model volcanoes were
taken out of dormancy and began erupting on the playground.
