Message From The Principal
Spring is here and we are so happy to be taking advantage of the weather this week. Many classrooms have spent time outside reading and enjoying the extra sunshine! This week we also enjoyed some beautiful kindergarten music performances lead by our wonderful Karin Meister. It was lovely to have so many families attend to support our music program here at Westbrook.
This week we greatly enjoyed Teacher Appreciation Week. I would like to take a moment to thank each and every staff member here at Westbrook. Their commitment and dedication to our students, their families and the community is second to none! They are amazing individuals and all staff members play an important and vital role in the development of our students.
A huge thank you to all of YOU for your support this week too! Thank you for all of the treats, flowers, gift cards and kind notes to all of our staff. It really mean so much! Thank you to our wonderful PTA and volunteers for all their support this week! It has been a special week with so many smiles and laughs. We are all so fortunate to work in such a supportive community!
Next week Westbrook is hosting our PTA meeting. We hope to see you there. We also have a Preschool field trip planned for our PM preschools to the Glenview Public Library, how exciting!
Have a wonderful weekend,
Patrick
New This School Year!

Sign Up by May 15 for GRASP Summer Learning
As part of the District's summer offerings, again this year we are partnering with the Grand Rapids Academic Summer Program (GRASP) this year to offer an optional summer review program at no charge. GRASP is a way for your child to maintain reading and math skills while on summer break.
Students receive a workbook with nine units of review exercises to complete each week. Families mail answer sheets to GRASP for scoring. Or, you can avoid postage and drop off answer sheets at the District 34 Administration Building, 1401 Greenwood Road. GRASP materials are available only in English at this time.
To register, complete this form no later than May 15, 2023.
After you register, materials will be mailed directly to your home. Please submit a separate form for each child you wish to register.
Please only register if you are able to complete all required lessons and send in answer sheets weekly. The last unit will be due by August 4th. By completing this form, you are making a commitment that your child will fully participate in GRASP for Summer 2023.
