As we move further into the fall semester, I want to take a moment to celebrate the many ways our students are demonstrating excellence both inside and outside of the classroom. Their commitment, effort, and enthusiasm continue to make us proud.
First, I would like to extend a heartfelt congratulations to our Track Team and Coaches on an incredible season. Their hard work and determination culminated in a phenomenal showing at the District Track Meet! Our athletes not only achieved remarkable performances on the track but also represented our school with pride, sportsmanship, and resilience. These qualities exemplify the spirit of our Wildcat community and set a strong example for all of us.
As we close the track season, we are equally excited to begin a new chapter with the start of 7th and 8th grade Boys Basketball. We look forward to watching these student-athletes grow as teams, and we are eager to see the 6th grade season begin in a few short weeks. Athletics provide an important opportunity for students to show their C.A.R.E. values, and we are excited to see our athletes thrive!
Beyond athletics, our other extracurricular programs are thriving. The Fall Play is already off to a smooth and promising start, with students dedicating their time and talent to bringing a meaningful production to life. Various clubs and activities have also kicked off, giving students a wide range of opportunities to connect with peers, explore new interests, and contribute to our vibrant school culture.
It is truly inspiring to witness the many ways our students are engaging in our community. Their involvement reflects not only their individual passions but also our shared values of community, achievement, respect, and equity. Thank you to our families, staff, and community members for your ongoing support, which makes these opportunities possible. Go Wildcats!
Hispanic Heritage Month:
The theme for 2025’s Hispanic Heritage Month is Collective Heritage: Honoring the Past, Inspiring the Future. Visit the West library and check out a book that recognizes the culture, history, struggles and contributions of Hispanic Americans to the United States.
The celebration begins mid-month because September 15 is the independence anniversary of five countries: Costa Rica, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Honduras, and Guatemala. Mexico's Independence Day is celebrated September 16.
A few books to check out include:

Transportation is required by CDE Regulations to account for all students on the bus and unauthorized passengers are not permitted. However, the Transportation Department recognizes that circumstances may arise, e.g. a family emergency, parents out of town, etc., when a student needs to ride home with another student on a one-time only basis. The student must get off at the assigned stop of the student they are riding with (no exceptions).
Make sure to fill out and turn in the linked Permission Slip to the Campus Admins office no later than 9:00 AM on the requested ride date. Forms can be printed and handed to the Campus Admins Assistant. Hard copies of the form can be picked up from the Campus Admins office if they are needed but must be picked up prior to the day they need to ride a different bus. No emails will be accepted. If there is an emergency, please call the Campus Admins office at 720-554-5155.
