Westridge Drop-Off/Pick-Up Process
2022-23 School Year | Aug. 18, 2022
Hello, Westridge Families,
As we prepare for our upcoming school year, we wanted to share with our families some reminders to help students safely arrive and leave each day from school. Students helped create a video to share with parents and their peers. Please take time to watch it with your students and review the maps which show how to keep traffic moving each day.
Thank you!
