Sunday, November 26

Happy Sunday Families! It is time to come back to school after a nice, long break. We are all very excited to see your children and hear about all of the fun things they did over break. It is often tough for children to transition back after breaks, but that is very common! Even if they tell you they don't want to come back, bring them anyway. We will embrace them with a smile and they will be having fun with their friends in no time! We have 3.5 busy weeks of school until our next break. This time of year flies by! 

I am thankful for each of you and for all that you do! Thank you to everyone who donated items to our swap, helped set it up and especially those of you who came to the swap! It was a huge success and we do plan to do it again. I have major FOMO as I couldn't be there, but I will be at the next one! 

Below are some exciting things coming up:

Attendance Awareness: The Key to Student Success!

We're excited to share with you informative infographics that break down the various attendance notices you might receive from our school and/or district and the various terms used in them. No more deciphering hieroglyphics on these notices!


Understanding terms like "Truancy," "Unexcused Absences," and "SART" can make your life a whole lot easier. These infographics are your go-to guides, and the notices help you stay informed and on top of your child's school attendance.


But here's the key takeaway: Regular school attendance is essential for your child's academic success. Consistent attendance helps them build crucial skills and knowledge, so they can reach their full potential.


So, take a moment to check out the infographics, because every day matters! Thank you for your partnership in ensuring that every student has the best chance for success.

  Well, Hello March! I cannot believe March is upon us. The rest of the year is absolutely going to fly by. It is nuts! The kids have grown so much this year and made so many friends. It is going to be hard to part for summer, but I am not even going to think about that yet! There are too many things to do before we get there.  Read Across America Week: This is going to be a fun week. It is 'Read Across America Week' at Westbrook. We have dress up days and fun activities planned for the week. See the picture above for our dress up days. It is going to be a lot of fun!  Parenting Tips: One of the best things you can do for your child is to allow them to come up against a challenge and work through it. I know it may sound like I am repeating myself, but it is because we are seeing a trend in our students. Many of our students lack the coping skills to navigate through a tough situation. Of course, it is easier to avoid meltdowns and blow outs by preventing them for our ch...

Happy Sunday, Families! In true Westbrook style, we are finishing the year with a bang! Our First Responders Day was absolutely amazing and there were so many of our parents participating! What a gift! I don't think I will surprise anyone when I say I think it will be even bigger next year!  This image is funny because A) we are almost at the end of the school year and B) I will be on you about parking lot procedures next year, too!! 😂 Field Day: Field Day is this Wednesday! It is going to be so fun. This is not an event where parents can come watch, but you can definitely come help! There are a few spots left.  Sign up here: Field Day Volunteers.  Yearbooks: Our yearbook have arrived! There were not many orders but the good news is you can still order a yearbook. I will be sending an email on Tuesday with information about hoe to do that. If you did order one, your child will get their yearbook soon. We are dividing them up now. We have learned some lessons about shar...
