Feb. 21-25, 2022
From the principal's office...
Westwood parents-
We hope you had a good week. It looks like it may be another crazy weather week coming up...hopefully it will be fine, but keep an eye out! If the forecast stays iffy, we will send home devices as we did last time. If our superintendent calls for an AMI day, students will need to zoom and do the work assigned online. AMI can be tough, but it allows us to carry on with learning and not make it up at the end of the school year. If conditions are icy and there are power outages, etc., there may be a snow day instead. We live in Arkansas, so who knows?!?
We are so excited- the book fair is here! Parents are welcome to to the book fair anytime next week between 7:30-8:00 and 2:45-3:15. You can also send money with your student as we have done in the past if you'd like. It really helps if you put it in an envelope labeled with the child's name and what it's for (especially for the younger students).
Speaking of in person, we are moving back to face to face conferences. Student-led conferences are March 7-10, and you should have received notes in this past week's Tuesday folder to mark days/times you can come. Appointment times will be sent out in this week's Tuesday folder. If you did not return your paper, you will be assigned a time when the teacher can meet. If you need to reschedule, please call the office. Your student will need to be with you as he/she will be telling you about learning, goals, etc.
Westwood has gotten some new paint inside since many of you have been able to visit- check it out during book fair or conference week!
Kindergarten registration is starting March 7th! We are sending notes home in Tuesday folders to let you know what all you'll need if you have a child to enroll for kindergarten!
Love,
Mrs. Crumby (your proud principal)
