The Principal's Nest
Parent Edition - August 5th
Welcome Back
Thank you for signing up for this newsletter! I am thankful and extremely proud to serve as your child's Principal for the 2018-2019 school year. I'm truly appreciative of the warm welcome and I'd like to carry this energy over into the school year. I have big shoes to fill, as I step in as lead learner of West View Elementary.
Teachers and staff are working diligently to get ready to welcome your students back to school. Please use this link to find out which school supplies your child may need before they return to school on August 27th. https://www.johnston.k12.nc.us/domain/8456
There will be a PTA meeting tomorrow, August 6th at 6:30 pm. I'd love for you to join us in the Media Center, as we discuss goals, progress, and ways to support our school for the 2018-2019 school year.
Meet the Principal Night is on August 7th. Grades K-2 4:30-5:30 and Grades 3-5 6:00- 7:00. We welcome you to meet myself and the Assistant Principals as we begin to discuss our vision for the school year. We will have Lemonade and Cookies available!
Open House/ Meet the Teacher Night will be held on August 21st for Grades 1-5 from 5:00- 7:00.
Kindergarten Spark Night will be held on September 4th. Last Names A-L will be from 5:00-6:00 and Last Names M-Z will be from 6:30- 7:30
You should be receiving "Welcome Letters" from your new teachers by August 20th. These letters will be placed in the mail by August 16th, so get ready to find out who your teachers will be after that time.
Security Measures: As we are coming back to school, please note that our door bell system is in full effect. Please ring the doorbell, located to the right of our main entrance. Though it is our custom to hold the door for others, as it displays good manners, at this sensitive time in our society I'm asking that you not hold the door for others behind you. You can, however, be polite by letting the person behind you know that they should ring the door bell as we are taking every step to keep our school safe. Once we begin to practice this procedure, it will become an everyday process. - Thank you in advance!
I look forward to seeing you all at these upcoming events! Please enjoy the rest of your summer!
