WEST HAVEN HIGHLIGHTS

hawk

Sep. 2-5

Hello Families,

We have been so impressed with our students. They have been diligent in learning the rules and procedures of their classroom and the school.

When dropping students off at the South side gate, please remember that this is a drop off/pick up lane only. You must stay in your car. Drop off/pick up should be quick so we can move cars safely through this line. If you need to wait and watch your student enter the building, please park in the parking lot. Parking in the drop off lane causes unsafe conditions as families feel forced to double park and students start dashing in between cars. Thank you for helping us keep students safe. We also understand that safety isn't always convenient, but it is worth helping our kids arrive to school safely.

We've been made aware the attendance form (linked at the bottom) was locked. It is now open and is a great option for reporting absences.

Have a safe and enjoyable weekend. Monday is Labor Day and we will not have school.

Best Regards,

Mrs. Geisler

HERD WEEK

West Field Hope Night

West Haven Elementary is in two cones. Some of our students will go to Roy High, and some students are in boundary to attend West Field. Being a part of two cones has some advantages. We get to participate in each cone's activities.

Next week, West Field has HERD week. HERD stands for Honor, Excelence, Respect, and Determination. We are joining West Field in sharing the meaning of HERD.

On Wednesday Sep. 3, West Field has an excellent guest speaker-Braxten Nielsen. Our community is invited to listen to his story of perseverance.

We will have a fun activity for students to enjoy while parents get a break and have the opportunity to learn how to build resilience in our families. Invite your friends and neighbors.

Character Strong

Respect

This month's focus is on respect. Respect means seeing the good in people and things and treating them with care. Seeeing good in others can mean that you look for things you appreciate in people - whether they are similar or different from you.

3 of our character traits this year teach us to be kind. Respect is one of these character traits. It helps us to be kind.
