What's Up, Westy Academy?
Some things worth mention though; Perfect Attendance Winners for the month of September were celebrated last week! Each month, all students who had zero absences for the entire month are entered into their classroom drawing. Two students from each classroom are then selected to win the monthly Pizza Party, are awarded a certificate and a Westy Academy Owl sticker. You can check out the list of winners below.
Of course, Westy Academy is already gearing up for Halloween, and our school-wide Candy Drive contest starts this Monday. Check out the details below, Ms. Michelle has lined up a pretty awesome prize for the top TWO classrooms that win!
We do still need volunteers for the field trip to Denver Museum of Nature and Science--all classrooms are attending! Please, if you are interested in chaperoning this field trip, make sure to fill out the form below as well.
That's all for this week, Owls! Have a wonderful weekend!

Look at our team of Awesome Engineers!
Thanks to a generous donation from Veregy our Level 5 students were able to build and design their very own phone chargers. We had so much fun learning how to wire in our solar panels and make our very own chargers to use at home. The kids learned about how different solar panels work and how they can pursue careers in STEM when they grow up!
Lost and Found
Students! Make sure to check the Lost and Found bin located outside the Main Office for missing coats, sweaters, and more! If you have misplaced any belongings during the school day, this is the place to start your search.
**The Lost and Found bin gets FULL pretty quickly! Due to the space constraints in the school, all unclaimed Lost and Found items will be donated at the end of every Hexter. Please make sure to check the bin frequently!
