EOG Testing for 3rd, 4th, and 5th Grade Begins
EOG Test Dates
EOGs for Track 2, 3, & 4 from June 19- June 30.
Please remember, parent volunteers for any purpose other than EOG proctoring will not be permitted in the building during testing and Lunch Bunch will not be held.
Attendance Matters
Our May attendance percentage was 95.65% (exceeding April's attendance by 1.57%).
While we celebrate this growth, we must recognize there were still 721 absences recorded in May. Our goal is to reduce this to less than 650 in June!!
Volunteers Needed
Volunteers are needed from 2 to 3 p.m. Thursday, June 29th, to decorate for the Track 2, 3 and 4 fifth-grade promotion receptions, as well as to set up and clean up for the receptions themselves from 9 a.m. to noon Friday, June 30th.

PTA - Boosterthon T-shirt Sponsors
The West Lake PTA is excited to announce the return of the Boosterthon Fun Run to help us achieve our fundraising goals for the 2017-2018 school year. The Boosterthon Fun Run is a fun, two week character, fitness and leadership program that combines world-class and engaging character content with a fundraising event for our school.
To build student pride in this event, we will provide each student with a free t-shirt to wear the day of their Fun Run. For those who have participated in Boosterthon before, this t-shirt will be custom for West Lake Elementary (as compared to the traditional Boosterthon t-shirt), allowing each student to have a school spirit shirt that they can wear throughout the year.
