Kids' Food Basket

Kids' Food Basket sack suppers has begun for those students who have signed up! Opt-in forms were sent home with your child. If you have not already done so, please fill out the form and return it to school with your child as soon as possible so that we can get your student on the list to receive a sack supper!

Congratulations!

Our students at West Godwin have been focusing on showing RESPECT and are earning special PRIDE tickets both in and out of their classrooms. At the end of each month, we count how many RESPECT tickets have been earned and the class from each grade level that has the most tickets earns a class reward. For the month of October the following classrooms earned a special reward!

Mrs. VanderVelde's Class - chose an Ice Cream Party

Mrs. Schierbeek's Class - chose an Ice Cream Party

Mrs. Hetrick's Class - chose a Bubblegum Party

Please pay close attention to security officers and staff directing traffic daily. For safety please follow directions of staff during pick-up and drop-off and practice slow speeds through the student drop-off pick-up zone.


Please observe the Right Turn Only Sign as you exit the parking lot. Attempts to turn left have resulted in some extremely close calls when entering traffic on 36th street.
