Westbrook Families Weekly Updates
Week of August 21, 2023
Welcome to Week 2 😊🎉
This week we would like to invite all of our families to join us for Back To School Night on Wednesday, August 23rd from 6pm to 7pm.
A blank class schedule has been provided to your student to fill out in order for you to use during the evening. If your student misplaced it, additional copies are available in our main office.
“Back-To-School” Night is held in order to acquaint you with your student’s daily academic routine and provides you with an opportunity to meet your student’s teachers as well as understand a little about each course. Due to the nature of the evening’s activities, individual parent conferences are not possible. Each teacher will present course goals and expectations within an 8 minute period for each class that they teach. Parents will be moving from class to class during passing periods just like students do each day.
I do hope you are able to join us. 😊

UNIFORM POLICY
Please note that uniform checks are conducted daily and every student is expected to abide by the uniform policy.

- Confiscation of the food order, which will only be provided to the students guardian after school
If you have any questions or concerns - please feel free to contact the office directly.
SCHOOL BUS BEHAVIOR
Lastly, remind your student that riding the school bus is a privilege that is contingent upon the continuous observance of bus rules and established regulations.
The expectation is that students...
- Remain seated the entire time that the bus is in motion
- Noice level should be at a minimum - since it is important for them to hear any instructions that the bus driver sees fit to deliver; Thus no speakers are allowed on the bus
- Nothing should be thrown in or out of the bus
- There is no eating on the bus
- Destroying property (including tagging) is not only against the law but agains the bus rules
Students unable to observe these expectations may loose the privilege to ride the bus.
