Westview December Parent News

#WestviewHornets

Westview Families,


It's hard to believe that its already December! We are nearly half way through the year and have learned so much. It can be hard to stay focused with the excitement of the holiday season approaching which is why we appreciate extra support from families to remind students to exhibit GREEN behaviors at school.

Important Reminders

Transportation Changes:

If you are going to change how your student is going home, please contact the office 765-973-3445. This needs to be done before 2:00 (1:00 on Tuesdays). We cannot get students off the bus once they are on the bus. We would like to ensure all of our students arrive to their destination safely.


Bus Safety:

The safety of our students is of upmost importance including while riding the bus to and from school and during field trips. We will be addressing bus safety and bus expectations with all students and work with bus drivers and bus aids to ensure expectations are being met. We also encourage families to talk with your child about the importance of staying seated while riding the bus, following adult instructions, keeping hands to ourselves, and using kind words. We want to encourage a safe and positive start and end of the day for all students and appreciate your support in our efforts.



Outdoor Recess:

With the ever changing weather, please remind students to dress for the weather and wear a warm coat, gloves, and a hat as the classes are still having outdoor recess and it can be chilly at times. (If you need assistance, please let us know and we are happy to find ways to provide for student needs)
