Handbook Highlight
Meals - Westwood offers breakfast and lunch every day. By law, EVERY child has access to a meal card and can 'purchase' meals, unless you have asked for your child's meal card to be removed. Please be sure to create an account and check your child's balance on Titan School Solutions (even if you send your child with a lunch every day, s/he may be picking up a smoothie for breakfast!). You can also use the system to access free/reduced meal applications.
EDMS Family Walk
We hope some of you will be able to pop over on Saturday morning, October 19th for the EDMS Family Fun Walk, starting at 9am. There will be refreshments and various booths after the 2.5 mile walk. Strollers and dogs are welcome! Although it's too late to get a t-shirt, it's not too late to register: $8 for youth, $10 for adults! We can wear our Wildcat gear, and how our school spirit. Other schools in our Feeder Pattern will be joining the fun too. Spread the word with your students' families! See the Registration Form for all the details!
