Fridays with Frazier moves from COVID and computers to the magic that happens in the classroom.
This week we feature Mrs. Laurie Titsworth’s Pre-K class at Westside Elementary School, where they incorporated the magic of the season to teach letters, sounds, reinforce colors, introduce graphing, all tied together with a bow and a book.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! Today marks the first day of a long holiday break.
May you and your loved ones make the most of this time together during this Christmas season. Many of us are looking forward to sending 2020 on its way and ringing in a new year filled with hope in 2021.

Ever heard of Elf on a shelf? How about a Principal on a shelf? Westside's got one! Twinkle the elf has been spotted at Westside! She was rolling down the hallway in a wagon, being mischievous in classrooms, playing with toys, smiling, and hugging her Westside friends! Hope you all have a very Merry Christmas! Have a great break! We will see you Jan. 4th!




Why is it always so cold at Christmas?
Because it's....Decem-brrrrrr!
What's the best way to stay warm on a cold day at school?
Wear your pajamas!
Mrs. Cummings's friends earned a pajama day last week for turning in their Star Bucks, no we don't mean Santa's best reindeer....Star Bucks are paper money students earn at Westside for being "caught" being good. Making good choices. Helping a friend. Exemplifying the 8 Great Expectations! Mrs. Cummings's Class has earned so many that they turned them in to receive a Pajama day! Way to go, Mrs. Cummings's class! We are so proud of you all!

Introducing....
Mrs. Bettie McCaw
First Grade Teacher
Thank you for your dedication.

Remember when it was Library day at your school? The excitement knowing when you turned your book in, you'd get to pick out a brand new one! Westside students go once a week to the library to check out new books. They also get a special lesson from our Librarian, Mrs. Lamb.
