End of Summer Edition
Welcome New Staff to West Terrace
This is a special edition newsletter to alert our community about some staffing changes at West Terrace.
First, we wish Mrs. Acacia Peak luck and congratulations on her appointment as counselor at Fairlawn Elementary. The Fairlawn community is so lucky to have her working with them!
It is my pleasure to introduce the following staff members to West Terrace:
- Mrs. Bethany Lynch joins our office staff as a principal intern.
- Ms. Cynthia Hamon joins the first grade team, replacing Mrs. Peak.
- Mrs. Cassandra Curl joins the fifth grade team, teaching ELA, as a teammate to Dr. Simone Nance.
- Mrs. Amy Brantley, Mrs. Jacqui Lewis, Mrs. Courtney Wagner, all join the Lifeskills team as assistants.
Below you will find the Open House information where you will have the opportunity to meet your children's teachers and meet other families in our community.
The PTA is also organizing a Movie Night we hope you will be able to attend!
Enjoy the last days of summer with your children and we'll see you soon!

West Terrace Recycling
As of the end of this school year, we will no longer be collecting plastic caps here at West Terrace. Since 2013, we have collected approx. 7,000 lbs. of caps and been able to acquire 5 benches and 4 picnic tables!! Thank you to everyone who tirelessly saved caps for us, students that sorted, bagged, and weighed caps, and parents that helped secure funds, picked up caps, and transported them to and from Green Tree Plastics!
We will continue to save aluminum cans! The cage is located on the east side of the school in the parking area.
