What better day to announce our October MS Students of the Month than on World Kindness Day!
Senior English working together on a timeline sorting activity with their "tribes" over Ch. 1-6 of Lord of the Flies. Who will reign triumphant and lead their tribe to victory?!?
We’re grateful for the kindness we see in our students every day. 😊
In honor of World Kindness Day, we’d like to say this: Thank you for lifting each other up, sharing encouragement, and creating a welcoming environment. Let’s keep it going! 🙌

Juniors and Seniors had the opportunity to travel to Minnesota West in Luverne, Minnesota to attend their Scrubs Camp today! Students were able to experience hands-on activities in the fields of dental assistant, medical assistant, medical laboratory technician, phlebotomy, radiologic technology, and surgical technology!
The yearbook committee attended the musical this past weekend and got really good photos of the cast that they would like to share with anyone that would like them.

West had a lot to be grateful for last week!
Today marks the beginning of National School Psychology Week! 🎉
This week, we’re recognizing the school psychologists who work hard to address students’ unique needs. From managing behavior to supporting emotional growth, their work impacts students every day.
On Veterans Day, we honor the brave individuals who have sacrificed to protect our freedoms. Your service is a lasting legacy. We thank you today, and every day. 🇺🇲
'Tis the season for sharing and caring! Let's help our fellow E-Hawks and their families during this Holiday season! If you have a donation, please contact the Middle/High School office or find a Middle/High School student to bring to their homeroom class.
Donations will then be distributed on Tuesday, Nov. 26th. Check the flyer for more details!
Don't Forget that we open THIS WEEKEND for our fall production of Rodger & Hammerstein's "Cinderella". The cast has put in an enormous amount of time and effort into this fabulous musical, and we don't want you to miss out! You can get your tickets on Bound or pay the $5 cash at the door. All seats are assigned when tickets are purchased.

To keep our teams and clubs strong and foster personal growth in students, it’s essential to uphold policies that set clear standards – like maintaining positive school attendance.
✅ Our district policy for co-curricular participation requires a student to be at school for the entire day which precedes the activity in which they will participate.
✅ If more than 15 minutes tardy to school, the student will not be allowed to participate in any extracurricular activities that day.
✅ If not in school the morning of the activity, the student must be excused with a doctor’s note and be in attendance during the final three class periods of the school day to be eligible to participate in after school or evening activities.
Be sure to review and familiarize yourself with the Parent/Student Handbooks for full policies and exceptions. Let’s support our students’ academic AND extracurricular success!
Another day of being grateful at West!
