Get In The Holiday Spirit!
Please join us in celebrating the holiday season by dressing up from December 18th - December 22nd! We look forward to decking the halls of the Discovery with you!
Join our Discovery Crew! We have open positions available.
We are looking to fill special education paraprofessional positions in our Extended Resource Room. The hours available are 8:15 AM-4:15 PM Monday-Friday. We are hoping to fill two full-time positions and one part-time morning position.
We also have a position available for a part-time Noon Duty on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. As a Noon Duty, you would supervise students at lunch recess between 11:45am-1:00pm.
Applications are available on the district website or call the office for additional details.

Master Lee's Taekwondo
Mrs. Jensen was excited to have Master Lee’s Taekwondo Instructors visit Discovery last week! PE classes received an introduction to the sport of Taekwondo and learned about the importance of having confidence, focus, and self-discipline. The students were so respectful and focused during Master Lee’s demonstrations! Students received the attached flyer after their first PE class/demonstration, but it is attached below in case it got misplaced. Master Lee’s Taekwondo offers this demonstration as a fundraiser for our school, and Mrs. Jensen plans to use the money raised to purchase updated scooter boards with the advanced in-line skate wheels. They glide smooth and are ideal for all grade levels. The students at Discovery will love this addition to our PE equipment!
Volunteers needed!
We want to thank the parents who have been volunteering their time to help scan cards for our Discovery Dashers Run/Walk Club. We are still in need of more help, especially on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays!
If this is something that might fit into your schedule, we’d love to have you! If you have any questions, please contact Mrs. Jensen (Jensen.Jessica@westada.org) Thanks!
