WCEF Fun Run Flyer - 2024.pdfLeader in Me Surveys
Our district is implementing a whole-district transformational process called Leader in Me, which teaches 21st-century leadership and life skills to students and creates a culture of student empowerment based on the idea that every child can be a leader. Our school will be conducting the Leader in Me Measurable Results Assessment (surveys) to learn more about key areas of strength and needed growth in our school. In order for us to have a holistic picture of what is going on in our school, we are asking staff members, parents/guardians, and students in Grade 4 and up to complete surveys.
Students will be asked to complete the brief surveys during the week of May 13th. If you would like to review the survey questions, email Jen Taylor at taylor_jennifer@my.westcler.org. If you would like to opt your student out of taking the survey, complete this “Google Form.” We hope you can encourage your child to participate in this survey. Their voices matter.
West Clermont families and staff,
We are pleased to share that the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce announced last week that West Clermont School District is a 2022-2023 Momentum Award winner! In addition, West Clermont Middle School and Willowville Elementary also received this same award.
The award recognizes the achievements of Ohio’s school districts and individual school buildings for improvements made on the School Report Card. Awardees must improve their Performance Index by 3 or more points over the previous year’s Report Card and receive a Progress rating of 4 or more stars. Out of over 600 school districts in the state of Ohio, West Clermont is one of only 42 districts to receive the Momentum Award.
