The Principal's Nest
Parent Edition- September 30th
Appreciation
I want to thank you also for the wonderful outpouring of support for our Hurricane Relief Drive. We collected a substantial amount for those in need in Atkinson, NC. There is no doubt that the items that were donated will be put to good use and thoroughly appreciated.
Parent Reminders
- All students should be walking themselves to class, as of October 1st.
- When coming to eat lunch with students, bags with company logos are not permitted in the cafeteria (Applebee's, McDonald's, Chic-fil-A etc) Please use an unmarked container or bag
- During carpool, please make sure your student exits from the passenger side. Some students are walking in front of cars and they can not be seen by drivers.
- If you are in need of a carpool pass, please come inside the main office and we will provide you with one
- As the seasons are changing, please have your children pack a sweater in case the building temperatures get too chilly for some.
- JCPS School Nutrition has been notified that our district is included in the Presidential Declaration of Disaster, which means ALL students will be provided FREE breakfast and lunch, starting Monday, October 1 until October 31 as a result of damages sustained by Hurricane Florence. http://jcpscafes.com/?page=menus Be sure to follow the prompts to get to the West View Elementary Cafeteria Menu
