2020 has been a challenging year in many respects - especially for parents! Westside's award-winning School Psychologist Mary McPadden recently participated in a panel hosted by KMTV's Jennifer Griswold called Parenting In The Pandemic. This special presentation offers expert advice on how to best support your children - and what we can learn from them! - as we continue to navigate this school year. CLICK HERE to watch!

THANK YOU to Emily Nitcher with the Omaha World Herald for sharing word of the Westside Family Resource Center earlier this week. This amazing facility, made possible thanks to the Konigsberg Family, the Westside Foundation, our district social workers, our Westside Community Council volunteers, and countless donors throughout our community, offers clothing and food to any Westside student or family in need at no charge.
