Westie Besties from Ms. Palmer's and Ms. Pilant's classes had some fun bonding time together. These fourth grade and kindergarten students were able to decompress before the older grades began state testing. Great collaboration, besties!

This photo exemplifies some of the wonderful things that you might see on a typical day at Westside. First, our incredible Safety Patrol members assisting students throughout the building. This kind, nurturing, natural-born leader helped a younger student find her class. Next, in the background, our amazing assistant principal makes sure every student feels celebrated and ready for the day. This is what it's all about. You never know how far that ripple of kindness will go.

Ms. Pilant's kindergarten leaders have been working on place value! This is a vital skill that they'll learn to build on throughout their elementary experience. They are already learning how to identify groups of ones, tens, and hundreds and apply them in standard and model form. Looks like these students are making progress!

There's nothing quite like an impromptu game of duck, duck, goose on the playground. Mrs. Classen helped show these Westside students how it's done!

First grade students explore how an embryo develops inside of a chicken egg over time, discussing life cycles, and observing differences between parents and offspring.
