Westside families,
At the May 11, 2026 Board meeting, the Board approved adjusting the last day of school, Thursday, May 21, 2026, to a half day for students.
Earlier this semester, our district was closed from January 26 through February 2 due to ice-covered roads. As part of our make-up plan, February 5, which was originally scheduled as a half day for students followed by PLC work for teachers, was changed to a regular instructional day. Because of that adjustment, we are able to dismiss early on the last day of school while still meeting the required instructional hours under our alternate calendar.
School will dismiss at 12:05 p.m. on Thursday, May 21. With this adjustment, the district will still have 1,068.5 instructional hours for the 2025-2026 school year.
We hope you enjoy your summer, and we cannot wait to see everyone back when school starts again on August 13.

Mrs. Wilson’s 4th grade math classes worked in teams this week to review for ATLAS in a fun and engaging way!
Students chose their own teams and used their fraction skills to solve a math mystery. The first, second, and third place teams even earned prizes!
Great job to all of our students for working together and sharpening those skills! 💪❤️🤍
