Westview JR-SR HS

Congratulations to both Varsity and Junior Varsity boys tennis teams for winning the Bluffton invitational! Well played, Warriors!

Shout out to the 61 senior students who packed meals at the MEC for the Feed My Starving Children event yesterday. Volunteers packed 292 Boxes, the equivalent of 63,072 meals - enough to feed 172 children a daily meal for a year. We are proud of your service, Warriors!

Well done Warriors!

It's nearly musical time! 🎶Auditions for Westview Music Department's Production of Annie will take place on Tuesday, August 18th and Thursday, August 20th. Auditions are open house style from 3:45 PM until 6:00 PM in the choir room. See Mr. Carter for an audition packet to be turned in at your audition.

In response to the new bell-to-bell cell phone law, we have placed a landline phone for students to use when they need to reach a parent or guardian during the school day. This phone is located in the front office, and students may come down during passing periods to call home. There are instructions posted near the phone on how to use it, so please make sure your child knows the best number to use if they would need to reach you during the day.

FIRST STAFF DAY OF THE 2026-2027 SCHOOL YEAR IS IN THE BOOKS! Today, we welcomed our amazing Westview staff back for a day filled with information, inspiration, laughter, dancing, connection, and plenty of spirit! Our morning included several informational speakers, a message from Dr. Jaime Carroll about the exciting future of Westview and our upcoming strategic planning work, and a hilarious game-show skit from our incredible school nurses! We ended our time together with a dynamic and inspiring keynote from Kim Strobel, who shared a powerful message about the importance of happiness in both our personal and professional lives. One message that resonated with our staff was: “We have to show up for ourselves before we can show up for others.” What an important reminder as we begin a new year of caring for, encouraging, and inspiring our students, and one another. There was so much energy in the room today, and one thing was clear, our people are what make Westview such a special place. We are excited, we are ready, and we cannot wait to see what this year holds for our students, staff, families, and community! The best is yet to come, Warriors! ❤️💛

Teachers have been hard at work preparing for your first day tomorrow! We can't wait to see you in the morning. Classes begin at 8:10 Tuesday, August 11, 2026. We've also included some dates you might want to mark down throughout the year and a reminder that after-school pickups should happen outside the auditorium doors to keep everyone safe and traffic moving smoothly.

We are ready to see you Tuesday, August 11th!! Check out the message from our principals and Dr. Carroll

Over the summer, incoming 8th-grade students in the Introduction to Agriculture, Food, and Natural Resources class were tasked with planting and nurturing 2 to 4 hills of potatoes. They are required to maintain records of their potato cultivation and will submit these for grading. These potatoes will be brought to school for use in various thematic units across the 8th-grade classes. The school cafeteria will also feature the potatoes in the lunch menu once they are harvested. Any surplus potatoes will be donated to LaGrange County Clothes and Food Basket.

Transportation Info Needed! As we start working on routes for the 2026-27 school year, we need to know if there are changes from you! REMEMBER! You all received a letter at the end of the school year with transportation updates for the 2026-27 school year! You are allowed an AM pick-up and a PM drop-off this year. Students will not be permitted to ride a different bus in the morning or get off at a different stop in the PM other than their designated AM and PM stops.
What we need to know:
- If your child needs to be picked up or dropped off at a different location from last year.
- If your child switched daycare
- If your child did not ride the bus last year, but needs to this year
- If your child does not need the bus to stop at your house at all this year to pick your child up or to drop your child off
