We heard your feedback on the need to streamline platforms for communication. Say "hello" to ROOMS located in our mobile app. ONE platform for ALL TEACHERS and COACHES district-wide. No more creating an account on multiple apps for multiple students in the district. You will find it on one app from HS to Pre-K, band to football. Here is a sneak peek...

🏈🎥 Little Zebra Football Camp Highlight Video - https://youtu.be/AyU_58KwSjw
Over 140 1st - 6th graders were building skills, a love of the sport, and the Zebra legacy on historic Lantow Field this week. Players participated in non-contact drills, made friends, and made memories they will carry with them through high school when they complete their final walk across a stage on that very same field.
#CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Senior Walk is a celebration in which soon-to-be graduates walk the hall of the elementary school they attended to relive memories, see how far they have come, and visit with teachers they had in the past! Teachers create lasting connections with their students and these are but a few exampes of the beautiful connections our Westside teachers made! Congratulations to these amazing graduates! We hope you enjoy this summer before you embark on the rest of your lives! ❤️❤️
#CPSZEBRAPRIDE





We hope you are celebrating summer and spending time with your loved ones! Westside wants our students to know you are loved and we miss you all already! We wanted to share some more pictures of our epic summer celebration together! ❤️
#CPSZEBRAPRIDE





📖READ READ READ!!!📖
While it is important to relax and enjoy the summer break, it is also important for students to work reading into their summertime activities!
📕Reading is a great way to keep your child’s brain active so they can continue to learn over the break.
📕An average of one month of learning and two months of reading can be lost over the summer break.
📕Students can improve and grow in knowledge, critical thinking skills, and more for the coming year.
📕Reading routines can become quality time with loved ones that children will remember forever ❤️
Make those memories and read some stories together this summer, Zebra Family ❤️

Summer celebration was just what Westside needed! Our students soaked up the sun and enjoyed making memories with their teachers and friends to close up the school year! Students even got to watch Mrs. Hinds get silly stringed! This was one fabulous year, Westside family! Enjoy the summer! It's a great day to be a Zebra ❤️
