FREE ACADEMIC HELP FOR STUDENTS
Student Support for Academic Assistance Available From SCDE and SCSL
Recently, the South Carolina Department of Education and the South Carolina State Library (SCSL) announced a $1.5 million partnership to address the continuing academic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Tutor.com is available for families 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Students will have access to highly-qualified tutors in over 200 subject
areas. In addition to individual tutoring, Tutor.com provides a service for administering practice tests to determine if students are on the trajectory for content mastery as well as submit writing assignments for review and feedback.
Further, in addition to improving grades, tutors of Tutor.com assist with time management and planning strategies.
Participants will access Tutor.com through Discus – South Carolina’s Virtual Library at www.scdiscus.org and may engage in the number of sessions needed to meet their academic goal for improvement.
West View Car Line Reminders

Cafeteria Side Pickup

Car Loading Reminders
● Engines must be turned off while students are loading and should remain off until the teacher on duty notifies you that all students are safely loaded.
● Please stay in your vehicle while your child is walking to your car.
● Our campus is a tobacco and smoke free zone.
● Please have your car tag displayed on the dash of your car. Without a car tag, you will be asked to drive to the front office to show your ID.
● Students must be picked up by 2:50pm.
● If your child is going home a different way other than what was stated on Meet the Teacher Day, a written note will need to be given to the child’s teacher explaining the change in transportation.
Student safety is our utmost concern.
Our teachers work hard to load students as quickly and safely as possible.
Please contact the school administration
or the school resource officer if you have questions or concerns.
Thank you for your help in making our dismissal time run smoothly and safely!
A Message from the Principal
Dear West View Families,
It is my pleasure, along with the entire faculty and staff, to welcome you to West View Elementary School, Home of the Wildcats!
As your child’s principal, I promise to make decisions that prioritize safety, recognize each student as a unique individual, and facilitate a challenging and supportive school environment for ALL. Open and clear communication between school and home is vital to the success of our school.
To accomplish our goals this year, I invite you to play an active role in your child’s school success by committing to the following:
- creating a positive home learning environment with healthy bedtime routines
- attending conferences and school-wide events
- encouraging your child to follow school procedures
- modeling good citizenship and respect for others
- communicating with your child’s teachers
There are numerous opportunities for you to be involved, including PTO. We are actively recruiting PTO members to help with the many ways we support students. We look forward to building a school-family partnership and appreciate your support.
Welcome to our school where wonderful things are happening!
Sincerely,
Amy L. Faulkner
Principal
West View Elementary School
