Hello, Westridge Families!

I hope everyone enjoyed the day off and had a chance to rest and recharge! We are now officially in the second quarter, and this is a great time for students to reflect on their progress and set new goals for continued success. Report cards will be coming out soon, so please take time to review grades together and discuss ways to stay on track. If you have any questions please reach out to your student’s guidance counselor for a parent teacher conference.

Volleyball tryouts have been completed, and we look forward to an exciting and competitive season ahead. Thank you for your continued support as we work together to make this quarter a great one!

October 14 – Start of 2nd quarter

October 29 – Volleyball away at Southwest 5:00 PM

November 3 – Volleyball Vs Chain of Lakes – Home game 5:30 PM

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.

Responsible means doing what you are supposed to do, even when no one is watching. It means taking care of your work, your belongings, and your actions, and being someone, others can count on to do the right thing.

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.

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.
