"Challenge Day" is coming soon! - At West, we have continued to focus on a positive message for breaking down barriers among students through bringing "Challenge Day" to our campus the week of October 15th. Our Wolverine Leadership Academy has supported this program in coming to West High School. The "Challenge" week will involve three days of group activities which includes 100 students and 25 adults per day. Each day is a new group of students and a mostly a new group of adults. The fourth and final day will culminate with an all-school assembly on Thursday morning October 18th. Here is the link for the "Challenge Day" website for having a better understanding of what these days are about. Participation for staff and students is 100% voluntary. I look forward to seeing the positive impact these days will have on our school culture!
Fall Parent/Teacher Conferences - We are having our two nights of Parent/Teacher conferences at West High School starting Thursday, October 18th from 4:00 - 7:00 P.M. and again on Tuesday, October 23rd from 4:00 - 6:00 P.M. Both nights of conferences are by appointment only. These appointments are ten minutes in length. To sign up for conferences click here. Teachers will be in their classrooms per our usual format. Teachers manage their own conferences so parents will experience different processes when meeting with each teacher. Communication from parents to teachers is critical for success and technology allows us to communicate better than we ever have. With that being said, I ask all parents to consider if they truly need to come in and take a teachers appointment slot if their child is meeting/exceeding expectations, but of course, all are parents welcome.
Principal Advisory Council - Below are the names of the individuals on the Principal Advisory Council for 2018-2019.
