Cap

New West Side Caps for sale!

We are testing the waters with a new cap to see how popular they are. We have 12 youth size caps for sale in the office for $20 each. We will order more if there is high interest.
Pep Talk

Pep Talk Books!

We still have a few Pep Talk Books for sale in the office.  These would make a great holiday gift!  They are $25.
Playground equipment

Bond Project Update

We have still not received FINAL approval from the Division of the State Architect (DSA). We submitted one more piece that was pushed back to us, so we're very hopeful that we will hear back from DSA later this month -- with 100% plan approval.
In the meantime, we're very excited that the new playground structures pieces were delivered over the Thanksgiving break (see photo). It makes us feel like we're getting closer to a start date 😊
Once we know more definitive information, we will communicate with our whole school community. Thank you to everyone for your patience!
Kitties

Help include our beloved school animals in the holiday spirit!!!

Zinnia, Chubbypants and Raven have stockings in the office just waiting to be filled. Wait! Don't forget Coco and the Chickens! If you'd like to donate to the stockings, students suggest: Temptation cat treats, canned and dry cat food, litter, catnip cat toys, fuzzy warm beds, chicken food, mealworms, lettuce, or gift certificates for pet supplies etc. Thank you and MEOW!
