A Note from Mrs. Bennett...
Dear West Families,
As a reminder, our campus will be closed to visitors on Tuesday. However, you can still drop off lunches or sign out students for lunch. On this day, our 3rd-5th Grade students will be taking the Reading STAAR test. Our teachers and students have put time in effort in to growing in reading, writing, and math. STAAR is just one measure of their growth. Not all accomplishments are linked to academic performance. Our students have become more confident readers, more skilled mathematicians, and have developed fluency of thought in their writing, but along with this, our teachers have guided students to practice valuable lifelong lessons like working with partners, being accountable for their own learning, and making friends at school. If you get a chance, please share with your child and their teacher how proud you are of their accomplishments this year.
We love for parents to join our students on their field trips! If you plan to attend a field trip, please stop by the front office to receive a badge. This is always an exciting time of year!
Thank you for your ongoing support and involvement in our school community!
Sincerely,
Sasha Bennett
