SEPTEMBER NEWSLETTER

Dear Westville Families,

Welcome back to school! We hope you had a restful and enjoyable summer. It’s wonderful to see our hallways and classrooms filled with the energy and enthusiasm of our students as we kick off a new school year.

We’re off to a fantastic start, and it’s clear that this will be a year full of learning and growth. As we dive into September, we want to remind everyone of the importance of regular school attendance. Every day of learning counts, and being present helps ensure that our students are fully engaged and making the most of their educational opportunities.

This month is bustling with activities, both in and out of the classroom. Our students are already getting involved in various extracurricular programs, and we encourage all families to support and cheer them on as they explore their interests and talents.

Thank you for your continued support and partnership. We look forward to a productive and exciting month and to seeing our students thrive in all their endeavors.

Here’s to a fantastic September and a successful school year!

Yours in education,

Alissa Schnick

Principal

You can also contribute at our event page at https://app.99pledges.com/fund/westvillems3. You may also elect to donate by cash or via check; contributions can be sent with students to be delivered to Mr. Smith.

Updated Cellphone/Earbud Policy

Students may bring electronic devices to school as long as they are not a disruption to the learning process. Cell phones should be turned off or on silent and must be placed in the cell phone caddy in each teacher’s classroom and remain that way throughout the school day during every class period. If a student needs to use the phone, he or she should request to use the phone in the main office. Earbuds are not permitted to be worn during classes or in the hallway. Students who refuse to follow this policy may be subject to disciplinary action.

Chromebooks

Any student experiencing technology issues or who has technology related questions should contact the IT Department at it_helpdesk@westville.k12.in.us.

Transportation

All drop off/pick up students should enter and exit through Door #3 and MUST use the crosswalk for the safety of everyone involved. Students who ride the bus should enter and exit through Door #8 located in the back of the school. Transportation related questions should be directed to Mrs. Kruck, Transportation Director, at rkruck@westville.k12.in.us.
