Culture of Respect Module- During homeroom on Monday, students will be completing an online "Culture of Respect" module published by MCPS. When their work is completed, students will earn 2 SSL hours.
Thanksgiving Holiday- There will be no school for students on Nov 22, 23 and 24. Students will return on Monday, November 27.
Homework-free Weekend- We wish everyone a lovely, long weekend with family and friends. The Thanksgiving weekend is designated by Westland faculty as a HOMEWORK-FREE weekend. This means that no assignments are due and no large assessments will be given on Monday, November 27th. (The one exception would be an on-going reading assignment.) Enjoy the down time!
MYP Site Visit- Every five years, educators from the International Baccalaureate community review our program to make sure we are meeting standard. This year, our visit will occur virtually 11/28-12/1.
7th Grade Trips to Finance Park- On Tuesday, half of our 7th graders travel to Finance Park at Edison HS to expand their understanding of financial literacy. On Wednesday, the other half attend the field trip.
