From the Principal...
Dear Westbrook Families,
We are excited to bring "Hot Reads" back to Westbrook! A Hot Read is a favorite children’s book. Every staff member chooses a Hot Read book to promote and encourage reading at Westbrook. The books are displayed in the classroom and include a flame with the staff member’s name and picture. Throughout the year, we will have Hot Read assemblies where we gather as a school to hear a “surprise” staff member read their Hot Read aloud. We thank Mrs. P for sharing her Hot Read, I Promise, by Lebron James last week!
Halloween is quickly approaching. The Halloween parade schedule is below. Families are invited to attend the outdoor parade (weather permitting) at their child’s assigned time. We will walk out of door #1 and parade around the school. Please spread out so that all families can see the students walk by.
Students are invited to wear their costumes to school for the full day. It is important to ensure students are in comfortable costumes to sit in the classroom. Please help your child make safe and respectful decisions about their costumes. Students may wear an appropriate mask in the parade, but not during school. Make-up, weapons, fake blood, or inappropriate dress are not allowed. All costume accessories will be left in the classroom for recess and lunch. Students may not bring food or candy to share.
