Hello, Westridge Families!

We are off to a strong start this school year, and it has been wonderful to see our students engaged, learning, and building positive routines. Thank you for your continued support at home—it makes a difference every day.

Here are a few important upcoming dates to note:

  • Monday, September 1 – No School.
  • Wednesday, September 3 – First Home Soccer Game! Come out and cheer on our Warriors as they take the field.
  • Thursday, September 4 – Students will take the Math FAST PM1 Assessment. This is our first progress monitoring check of the year, and it will help us understand where students are and how we can best support their growth.

We encourage families to mark these dates on your calendar and continue having conversations with your student about setting goals and staying focused. Together, we can make this a year of learning, growth, and success for all of our Warriors!

Thank you for being such an important part of our school community.

Best Regards,

Nicole L. Jefferson

Proud Principal
