News from the Principal
Greetings, WE Families,
The big day is quickly approaching! Just a few more days until the FIRST day of the BEST YEAR EVER!!!! The classrooms are coming together. The teachers and staff have been collaborating and learning and planning. The WE Crew is excited to meet and greet our wolves tomorrow. Join us for the Back To School Meet-N-Greet from 1:00 - 3:00 PM.
Log on to the Parent Portal this afternoon to find out who your child’s teacher will be.
Make sure you complete the following items before you come
All families must complete the Annual Update in Infinite Campus.
Complete the sign up for PickUp Patrol.

When you arrive tomorrow, visit your child’s classroom teacher, visit the auditorium for other important information tables and then join PTA and friends outside for some social time.
The WE Crew has prepared for a terrific school year. This is my 34th year in education and I could not be more excited than if I were starting year one. Westchester is a really special place. I am so thankful to walk alongside each and every wolf as they take the next step to becoming “leaders of their own learning.” Welcome to Westchester where everyone is invaluable to our learning community!
From your grateful principal,
Christine Knox
