Purpose Corner -This week I share with the West community the announcement I made to our entire student body regarding expectations of what it means to be a Wolverine, specifically in what we say to each other, as words matter. The transcript of the video can be accessed through this link.
Speak Up, Speak Out (SUSO) App - Students and families, the SUSO app is on every district iPad for use. Students, please take the time to go through the presentation link here on SUSO, to understand what SUSO is so you can use it as/if needed. There is also a link on the main page of the West website that will take you to the SUSO website. If you have any further questions about SUSO after going through the information, please ask any trusted adult in our building about this app and they will get you the information you need. You can... see something, say something, do something through this app.
Welcome to West Night - It is an expectation for students at West High School to stretch themselves and select a rigorous course schedule. For all underclassmen, the scheduling process happens in early February, but we encourage our students and families to begin thinking about that schedule today. All current families are welcome to Attend our “Welcome to West Night” on Monday, December 6th to connect with teachers and learn more about courses and programs we offer at West. Below is the one-page flyer for this event, we hope to see you there!!

The Board of Education recognizes that each student’s mode of dress and grooming is a manifestation of personal style and individual preference. The Board will not interfere with the right of students and their parents to make decisions regarding their appearance, except when their choices interfere with the educational program of the schools.
Accordingly, grooming guidelines are necessary to promote discipline, maintain order, secure the safety of students, and provide a healthy environment conducive to academic purposes. The following will be used as a guideline for student dress and grooming; does it:
present a hazard to the health or safety of the student himself/herself or to others in the school:
interfere with school work, create disorder, or disrupt the educational program;
cause excessive wear or damage to school property;
prevent the student from achieving his/her own educational objectives because of blocked vision or restricted movement.
Students are prohibited from wearing hats or other headwear (including hoodies) and coats in school on regular school days. The administration of any school may allow exceptions to this policy for legitimate reasons (religious, medical, or otherwise) or in the celebration of a specified pep rally, spirit day, or hat day.
Any clothing, jewelry, body art, or any accessory advertising alcohol, tobacco, or other drugs are at a counter purpose with district AODA programs and therefore deemed inappropriate. Students should dress appropriately for school and must refrain from wearing items that display excessive midriffs, low-cut tops, and undergarments. Students who violate the above expectations may receive disciplinary consequences.
