Open House | August 18, 2020

Submitted by arlene.haymond on

A Few Things to Remember:

• Everyone entering the school is required to wear a mask.
• We are asking that you limit the number of family members that you bring with you.
• We are also asking that you keep your visit to the classroom as brief as possible. We want students to be comfortable with their new surroundings so they are less nervous on the first day while maintaining social gatherings to limited sizes and times.

12:30-1:00  F-J

Wildcat Message

Wildcats,

Over the past few weeks I have spoken with several parents asking clarifying questions about the reopening of school. We have had great conversation! I recognize that there are still lingering questions and hope that I can clear them up for you.

Meet Michelle Mesinar, new Librarian

Submitted by arlene.haymond on

Hi there! I’m Michelle Mesinar. I am Westside’s new librarian. For the past two years I worked as Title I Tech at Westside. I absolutely loved working with kids and seeing their progress. I am also a Sophomore volleyball coach at Spanish Fork High School. I am from Las Vegas and I have lived in Springville for four years with my family. I am married and have 3 kids, Brayden 22, Lauren 16 and Peyten 14, oh and three dogs and 2 cats.  I love to read and it sounds weird, but I love books and the smell of books. I love all sports and being outside.
