This will be my last weekly newsletter for the 2021-2022 school year! I want to thank each and every West student, parent, family member and staff member for their continued support! It is hard to believe another year has passed at West, as I approach my 10th year as the principal of West Elementary this fall. Thank you to all the incredible, awesome Westies out there!
