Greetings Westside Families! Thank you for joining us last week to celebrate your children during our 2nd Quarter Awards Ceremonies. We also appreciate your support getting our 3rd-6th graders here and on time for testing last week. Our preliminary data shows a lot of growth in both ELA and Math!

This week we have yearbooks on sale, Class/Club photos and Parent Conference Night. Please see below for more details on each of these.

REMINDER for Checking Out Students: In order to check out a student from school, the adult must have a picture ID and be the legal parent or guardian. If an authorized adult (per registration packet) other than the legal parent or guardian wants to check out a student, they must have a WRITTEN note from the parent/guardian with signature to do so. A courtesy call to the parent/guardian will also be made.

As always, thank you for your support! Our office will be open Monday-Friday from 7:30AM-3:30PM. Please come on in if we can assist you in any way.

~Mrs. Stephanie Woodbury, Principal

We had a good turnout for our Parent/Student Lunch Day last Friday! Thank you to the families who joined us and we look forward to seeing more of you this Friday.

At this time, we must follow the parameters listed below per BPS guidelines:

• This opportunity will only be available on Fridays.

• Only adults on the approved pick-up list for a child will be allowed to have lunch with students. You will need to present your photo ID at the front office and receive a visitor's tag. When done, you must sign out before leaving campus.

• A designated area will be provided for the adult and student.

• Adults will only be allowed to eat lunch with THEIR child and we request only two adults per child please.

• Adults who are not registered volunteers will be monitored by school staff at all times.

• Adults will be permitted to be on campus for lunch for their child's 30-minute lunch block (times listed at end of newsletter for all classes). Once your child's lunch is over, we kindly as you to sign out and exit campus. If you have multiple children and want to have lunch with all of them, you must wait for additional lunch times in the front office, glass booth, or your vehicle.

• You may bring in food from outside sources for your child only. Any leftover drinks or snacks will not be allowed back in class however.
