Principal's Perspective
What a fun and quick few weeks we've had! We'll keep this short and sweet, but we hope you all have a great winter break. Whether you are celebrating the holidays, enjoying extra time with family, or traveling somewhere, we hope your time is joyful and renewing.
Thank you to all of our families who helped make our events in November and December possible and for those who volunteered for our parties this afternoon.
We will see you again on Wednesday, January 3rd.
Seasons greetings,
Mary Beth Fischer

Lunch Sign-Ups
For student safety and to accommodate our limited cafeteria seating, we are allowing our families to visit once a trimester. To be prepared for our guests and to check the Safe Visitor Registration of incoming visitors (this is required for every visitor) please make sure you register 24 hours in advance.
We allow 5 visitors per grade level lunch. Please use one slot per person signing up. Due to limited space, visitors will be sitting with their child(ren) at their classroom tables. You have the option of bringing in a home packed lunch or purchasing a lunch at school. No fast food will be allowed at this time. Lunch menus can be found here. The price of an adult lunch is $4.80.
Attendance and Dismissal
Attendance
Please do this even if you let your child's classroom teacher know about the absence. This will ensure that our attendance secretary receives the information.
Dismissal Changes
If you have a dismissal change, please let the front office know by 1:00pm. This gives the office enough time to notify your child is where they’re supposed to be at the end of the day! Please DO NOT leave dismissal changes on the attendance line.
To notify the front office of a dismissal change, call (317) 896-4711, or email:

Thanks to the Westfield Chamber of Commerce, you can now give your holiday decorations a hometown touch. This ornament recognizes our city's first responders while also highlighting the Monon Trail, a main artery of foot and bike traffic that connects our community.
Proceeds from this ornament will go towards the chamber's student scholarships and help them continue to support our local businesses.
