WE-SIDE Unified

Congratulations!

All twelve K-12 schools within Westside Community Schools have been awarded National Unified Banner recognition status!

What is “National Banner Recognition” Status?

To achieve this status, schools must incorporate and sustain 10 standards, including: Unified Sports, Inclusive Youth Leadership and Whole-School Engagement. Way to go, Westside!

Students in grades Pre-K through 6th are required to have an adult accompany them. Students in grades 7-12 and transition are asked to carefully consider the independence of their student and have an adult accompany if support for their individual success is needed.

The Special Olympics Unified Schools Program is a fast-growing initiative that brings together students of all abilities.

As Unified Champion Schools, we partner with Special Olympics Nebraska to implement a three-component strategy focused on Inclusive Sports, Inclusive Youth Leadership, and Whole-School Engagement. These three components bring students with and without intellectual disabilities together to promote a positive school climate, develop physical fitness, prevent bullying, enhance student engagement, and promote student leadership skills.

Mission

The mission of the Westside Community School District, as an innovative educational system, is to ensure academic excellence and to serve the unique needs of all learners.

Vision

Westside Community Schools will relentlessly pursue innovative educational ideals and promise to personalize learning for every student. We invite the challenge of developing a community of learners who embrace a broader, richer definition of success.
