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:

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.

September 1 - Labor Day - No School

September 3 – Soccer Home Vs Chain of Lakes – 5:00 PM

September 4 - FAST PM1 Math

September 8 - FAST PM1 ELA

Our teachers have been hard at work preparing engaging lessons and activities. This week, we encourage students to actively participate in class discussions and seek help when needed. Please help us to encourage every student to participate in class. Remember, asking questions is a key part of the learning process!

Want to help your student with their academics. Review these anchor charts with your students for a few minutes a night.

Respect means you care enough to think about other’s feelings before you act.

If you expect respect, then be the first to show it!

We want to remind everyone about the importance of regular attendance. Being on time and present not only supports your academic success but also fosters a sense of community. Let’s strive for a strong start by making every school day count!

Car riders please make sure to follow the carline and not allow your student to walk through traffic. Safety needs to be our number one priority.

Wanting a Parent/Teacher conference? Reach out to your students' guidance counselor.

Students should not be on campus prior to 8:45 AM. If you need to drop off prior to 8:45 AM, please register your student for the YMCA Before School Program. Information can be found here. In addition, the first period begins at 9:30 AM.  

Volleyball is our next sport. Athletic paperwork and physicals must be completed and properly uploaded in Aktivate. Volleyball practices will be conducted every day for approximately 1.5 – 2 hours after dismissal time. Athletes are expected to attend all of the practices unless they have arranged with the coach otherwise. Athletes are required to have and maintain a 2.0 average and exhibit leadership and good behavior to be considered and remain on any Westridge sports team. If you have any further questions please feel free to contact the following:

Athletic Director - Ms. Johnson Shawnette.Johnson@ocps.net

Volunteers must re-register each year through the image link below.

Parents need to opt IN to clinic services. This means that unless you have completed the health forms we will not be able to assist your student in the clinic. Health forms can be completed digitally on Skyward Family Access or you can fill out the forms and turn them into the main office. Those forms can be found below.  

Please make sure all-important parent/guardian information is up-to-date in skyward.
