Unleashing the Power of Our Pack- #PackPower!
Westwood's Mission:
October 23, 2022
2nd graders are reading!
We are howling with pride over these K-2 Wolves!
We are howling with pride over these 3-5 Wolves!
From the principal's office...
We had a great week at Westwood! 5th graders experimented with algae, 2nd graders learned about volcanoes and made a volcano model, GT students made a worm farm, 1st graders learned about sound with a kazoo experiment, and so much more!
Guess what? Westwood now has an Instagram page! If you are a "gram" person (that's what Mrs. Janet tells me the cool kids call it), follow Westwood Elementary (search for westwoodwolves). We know some of you don't use Facebook, so hopefully this will provide another avenue for you to keep up with what's happening at Westwood.
Last call for Domino's pizza card fundraiser- orders were due last week, but we extended it to this Tuesday.
We hope you have a great week!
Mrs. Crumby

How do I receive information from Westwood?
PHONE CALLS: We also send out phone calls through an automated system; you will receive these calls if your phone number is correct in Registration Gateway. If your number changes, you can update the information in Registration Gateway, or call the office to update.
SOCIAL MEDIA/WEBSITE: The weekly parent update and other announcements/stories are also posted on our school's Facebook page and website. We are working on activating our school's Instagram account also- we'll let you know when that's up and running.
PAPER NOTES: We also send out paper notes at times; most of these will be sent in folders that come home every Tuesday. Every now and then, we need to send information on other days, so it's a great practice to check the backpacks each afternoon/evening.
We don't want you to miss any information, so we put things out in lots of ways!
