- SIGN-UP FORM
Sign Up for a West Des Moines Pubic Library Card
To get a library card, any WDMCS student in grades PK-12 can sign up through an online form. The first sign-up window will be Oct. 5-16. Watch for an online sign-up form from your classroom teacher or Language Arts teacher!
WDMCS will share the information securely with the West Des Moines Public Library. Then, public librarians will create library cards for all students who sign up. Watch for more pick-up information from your home school’s teacher-librarian in early November!
*Library cards are available to students only, but students do not have to be West Des Moines residents to sign up.
Parking Lot Protocol
We understand our parking lot drop-off and pick-up process can be time-consuming. However, we need all families to follow the procedures to ensure our students are safe. Please remember these guidelines:
- Do not drop off your student or stop for any reason along Vine Street.
- Do not pull into the bus lanes along Vine Street.
- Do not allow your student to exit the vehicle until you have pulled up to the curb in the parking lot.
- Please drive slowly through the parking lot and on Vine St.
Building Opening and Closing Hours
Each afternoon the building will close to students 10 minutes after the last bell. This would be 2:45 on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday and would be 2:00 on Wednesdays. We are asking that all students have left the Stilwell campus 20 minutes after the last bell.
