Principal's Message
Dear West TV Families,
We've had a lot of great things happening this month! The Kalapuya Mural was completed and installed in the library and it is absolutely beautiful. Families will be able to come view it in person during parent teacher conferences in May!
Thank you to everyone that attended the Science Fair earlier this month - it was a huge success! A special thank you to Kevin Severson for coordinating this fun evening!
This week the 4th graders presented at their Wax Museum and the 2nd grade students presented at their Cultural Heritage Museum. The students all did an amazing job - I was so proud of them!
I hope you have a fun Spring break! We will be having an assembly on Friday the week we return and a Spirit Day "Animal Day" so start thinking about which animal you want to be!
Principal Valentine
