Westlake's Monthly Newsletter
June 2023
Principal's Message
As we wind down to the end of the school year, we reflect on all that has happened this year! Westlake has truly come so far by moving back into our home building and making it ours again! A normal routine has been established by students and staff, and we continue to bring back everything that we have offered before the flood and much more!
On Wednesday, June 21st, our last day of school, we will have our Graduation ceremony at 7:00 pm at Holy Spirit in Union. This will be a very special time, as we have 17 long time students graduating this year who have been a special part of our lives for a long time. We wish them nothing but the best and know that they all will go on to do amazing things!
All the best!
