West Ridge Elementary Newsletter

It is almost time to welcome back students!!!

I hope you all had a wonderful, fun and relaxing summer. We are excited to see all of our students and families.

Open House Information:

Thursday, August 29, is open house from 5-6:30pm. This your opportunity to meet the teacher and drop off school supplies. During this time, let your child's teacher know how your student will be getting home from school...bus, walking, car pick-up or southgate pick-up.

Two options for parent pick-up:

• The first option is you remain in your car and pick up your children in the car line. (car pick-up)
• The second option is to park your car and meet your child at the playground gate in the front of the building on the south side. (southgate pick-up)

Please make sure to clarify what option you will be choosing with your child's teacher. If your child is riding the bus, please make sure to share what bus number they will be riding. Follow this link to register your child for the bus, find pick up times, locations and bus number.

Sincerely,

Ms. Hoffeld

Hello Post Falls Community,

It is with great pleasure that I announce the re-opening of our Community Clothes Closet here at New Vision High School on Tuesday, September 10th. This is open for any in the community who need clothing. This is only possible due to the very generous donations and gifts from the businesses and community of Post Falls.

The Community Clothes Closet seeks to provide free clothing to all people in need. We provide casual and career clothes and footwear to children, women and men from all across our community and we do it all for free. We also have hygiene items.

We are located in a portable behind New Vision High School. You can enter through the small gate on Catherine Street on the east side of the building.

We are open Tuesdays from 2:45pm to 3:45pm. If these times do not work you may email me at Richard.raynor@sd273.com and we can set a day/time to meet.

We currently do not need any donations.

Thank you,

Rich Raynor
