The purpose for Kindergarten Entry Assessment is to help the Kindergarten teachers to better understand and assess your child's social and academic skills as he/she begins the new school year. Please choose a time convenient for you and your child.

A special request from our neighbors....
Vehicles driving and/or parking on the median break the sprinkler heads.
Let's be good neighbors and park only in the school's parking lots, and, if the lots are full, park on the street next to the curb. Thank you!

Meet the Teacher Day is August 13!
West Cypress Hills Elementary cordially invites you to our Meet the Teacher Day! We have set aside Tuesday, August 13, so that you can bring your 2019-2020 Tigers to school to meet their new teachers, see where their classrooms are located, and store away school supplies. During our Meet the Teacher Day, there will be opportunities to purchase Tiger Spirit Wear, join the PTO, and speak with staff from our Food and Nutrition Services (cafeteria.)
The LTISD Transportation Team will join us for the afternoon sessions. Due to a scheduling conflict, they are not available for the Kindergarten meetings the morning of August 13. However, the Transportation Team will attend our new-to-WCHE parents' orientation sessions which will be held on August 8. The parent orientation will be presented twice on August 8 with the first session beginning at 4:30 pm and the second at 5:30 pm.
In advance of our Meet the Teacher Day, you will be sent an email providing the name of your Tiger's homeroom teacher. The email will be sent to you Monday, August 12, around 4:00 pm; so, please make sure your enrollment or re-enrollment forms contain your current email address!
