The oldest portions of West Elementary School first welcomed students in 1952. Renovations and additions have occurred in the decades since, but the school’s age presents challenges for our young students and staff.
The long list of issues include:
➡️Outdated heating systems and window air conditioners
➡️Dated and damaged floors, fixtures, and furnishings
➡️Aging windows prone to leaks with many lacking screens
➡️Old plumbing and hardware that is difficult to repair
➡️Narrow hallways and doorways that don’t meet modern standards
➡️Poor configurations and insufficient storage
➡️Music education taught in a portable building placed in the 1970s as a “temporary” solution

High School Sports practices start on Monday, August 12th!
We are still missing a lot of information for students to participate in Football, Volleyball, Cross Country and Cheer and any other activities throughout the year.
Student(s) and families MUST be registered for activities on BOUND.
The FAMILY has to complete the Concussion Acknowledgement and upload the last page of the completed and signed Physical Form on there. You will NOT need to bring those documents to the office/school.
Students not fully registered on Bound will NOT be permitted to practice until these steps are done. The information for this has been out since the first week of July.

Thank you,
