Happy Halloween - I hope everyone had a nice Halloween weekend, I dressed up as a High School Principal and scared all the kids in the neighborhood!!! Just kidding... I would never be anything that scary. That is not my cat either, but I liked the picture...

JIT (Just-In-Time) - JIT has been going well here at West!! JIT is a critical part of that journey. This is to ensure our students start strong in their academics!

WHO? 

Any student who has a failed learning target at every 4 ½ week progress check or before that time

OR

 Any student who is missing work for that previous

week or is in need of academic support in that class


              WHAT?

The student is assigned in IC (students need to check IC for their JIT assignment on Monday afternoons) for a two-week period to receive teacher support in order to complete missing work and be passing the learning target. Students may be released early based on completed work. Students may be grouped together to work on similar targets/summatives


WHEN?

Every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 7:20-

7:50 A.M. Attendance will be taken and recorded in IC


HOW?

A standard email communication will go out to both

parents/guardians and student
