The Buzz at Westbrook School
September 10, 2021
From the Principal...
Dear Westbrook Families,
We have had a wonderful three-day week at Westbrook filled with learning. Students practiced the evacuation drill, bus evacuation drill, and shelter in place drill. I was so impressed with their excellent listening skills and ability to follow their teacher’s directions. We were able to perform these drills safely and in record time. I was very proud of our students and staff.
We also enjoyed popsicles in the park on Wednesday night with our early childhood students. I enjoyed watching the students run around the playground while parents and guardians were able to connect. I love that we can gather together outside while the weather is nice. A big thank you to our early childhood program for putting on such a fun event.
We have our first PTO meeting in person at Westbrook on Wednesday, September 15th. Please feel free to join us in the Westbrook LRC at 7:00 pm. We are excited to hear more about the Walk for Westbrook, the Read-A-Way program, the Book Fair, and more!
Have a great weekend, Westbrook!
For Your Children,
Danielle Crandall
Westbrook Principal
Safety Reminder
Please ensure you use the crosswalk in the parking lot walking to and from Westbrook.
Please do not walk between the busses. Staff members will be in front of the school each morning, reminding families to only cross at the crosswalk.
We kindly request you do not bring dogs or animals on school property. Many of our students are frightened of dogs.
Please contact the classroom teacher if you have a friend or family member picking up your child. Please communicate to the adult which door your child is dismissed from.
