First Graders Perform at School Board Meeting
This week our first grade students in the Dual Immersion program were guests at the Nebo District School Board Meeting, where they performed for the members of our school board. Great job first graders!
Spanish Immersion Program
Recently our 4th, 5th, and 6th grade classes in the Spanish Immersion program put on an assembly for Westside. Through song and dance they taught about different cultures and the importance of working together.
No Cussing Club
White Ribbon Week - Making a Difference
Just before Spring Break, Westside held a White Ribbon Week to help kids become more aware of the ways that they use technology. In conjunction with that, we were able to host an assembly by McKay Hatch, who started the "No Cussing Club" at the age of 14 while living in California. He was tired of hearing the cussing that was taking place around him and knew his schoolmates could do better. He talked with the students about the importance that one person can make when they stand up for what they believe in.
