Welcome to the 2026–2027 school year at Westbrook Park Elementary School!

The Student and Family Handbook is an important resource designed to help families better understand our school and district policies, procedures, and expectations. Please take time to review this handbook together as a family and refer to it throughout the school year.

As we begin a new school year, I want to thank our parents and guardians for your continued partnership and support. Our school is strongest when families and educators work together, and I value the questions, ideas, and feedback that families and students share with us. Your partnership helps us continue to grow and strengthen Westbrook Park as a place where every student can learn, grow, and thrive.

At Westbrook Park, we are committed to providing a safe, supportive, and engaging learning environment for all students. Through clear expectations, strong instruction, meaningful relationships, and a shared commitment to student success, we will work together to ensure that every child has the opportunity to reach their full potential.

We are excited to welcome you and your family to the 2026–2027 school year. Thank you for being an important part of the Westbrook Park Elementary School community. I look forward to a successful year of learning, growth, and partnership.

At Westbrook Park, we believe every student has the ability to learn, grow, and succeed. We are committed to creating a safe, inclusive, and supportive learning environment where students are challenged academically, supported socially and emotionally, and encouraged to become confident, compassionate, and independent learners. Through strong relationships, high expectations, meaningful learning experiences, and a partnership with families, we empower every student to reach their potential and contribute positively to our school and community.

The school staff directory is an essential resource for students, parents, and the community, providing up-to-date contact information and roles for all school faculty and administrative members. It helps facilitate communication and ensures that everyone can easily reach the appropriate staff for support, inquiries, or collaboration. For any updates or changes to staff information, please refer to the directory regularly or contact the school office directly.

The Upper Darby School District believes that strong communication and a positive home-school connection are critical to the success of our students and our schools. Westbrook Park Elementary School administration, teachers and staff know that good communication with parents is an important part of keeping families connected to school. We are committed to communicating with parents/guardians through a variety of tools. Please note the ways we stay connected with families and stay engaged!

There are several ways to stay informed about what is happening at Westbrook Park and throughout the District.

Parent-teacher meetings are an important part of our commitment to fostering student success and ensuring open communication between home and school. These meetings provide an opportunity for parents and teachers to discuss a student's academic performance, social development, and any concerns or goals. We encourage all parents to take advantage of these meetings to collaborate with teachers in supporting their child’s growth and addressing any issues.

Please note the report conference dates on the calendar and make plans to attend.

Teachers are not permitted to meet with parents during instructional time.

To schedule a meeting, please contact your child’s teacher directly via email or phone, or use our online scheduling system if the teacher makes one available. We look forward to productive discussions and working together to enhance your child's educational experience.

The Home Access Center (HAC) is an online platform designed to provide parents and guardians with real-time access to their child's academic information. Through HAC, you can view grades, attendance records, assignments, and other important academic details. This tool helps you stay informed about your child’s progress and supports effective communication between home and school. We encourage you to log in regularly to monitor your child's performance and stay engaged in their educational journey. For login assistance or questions about using HAC, please contact the school's main office or send an email to parentportal@upperdarbysd.org.

Schoology is our district’s comprehensive learning management system (LMS) that facilitates communication and collaboration between students, parents, and teachers. It provides a central platform for accessing course materials, submitting assignments, participating in discussions, and tracking academic progress. Schoology also allows parents to monitor their child’s engagement and performance, helping to support their learning journey. Teachers can send a Schoology message to parents of members in their course(s) or group(s) about course updates and reminders. We encourage you to explore Schoology to stay connected with classroom activities and resources. Log-in to Schoology at https://app.schoology.com/login?destination=home. For assistance with Schoology or any questions about its features, please contact the school’s main office or parentportal@upperdarbysd.org.

The weekly information newsletter, or Wednesday Folder, is a valuable resource designed to keep parents, students, and the school community informed about upcoming events, important announcements, and key updates. Each edition provides a comprehensive overview of school activities, achievements, and important deadlines. We encourage all families to read the newsletter regularly to stay engaged and up-to-date with school happenings. The newsletter is emailed to families using the email address on file in the Home Access Center (HAC). We encourage you to check your inbox every Wednesday evening to stay informed and engaged with the latest news from our school. If you have any questions or if you are not receiving these communications, please contact the school office to ensure your email address is correctly updated in our system or visit HAC to update your email address.

Up-to-date records are essential in handling emergency situations. Students will only be released to individuals identified on the district provided Student Information Form and district student information system (eSchool).

Parent volunteers are a huge resource for our school community.

We welcome parent volunteers! Upper Darby School District Volunteers are required to submit the PA Criminal Background Check, the FBI Criminal Clearance and the PA Child Abuse History Clearance along with their school district Volunteer Application. The Communications and Media Services office hosts Fall and a Spring Parent Volunteer Workshops to assist parents with the volunteer approval process. Submit your application today!

POSITIVE BEHAVIOR INTERVENTIONS AND SUPPORTS (PBIS)

Be Safe, Be Responsible, Be Respectful - The 3 Bs

Tiered System of Behavior Support

Our award-winning work around Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (PBIS) program involves reinforcing the 3 Bs every day and in everything we do. We want students to Be Safe, Be Responsible and Be Respectful. We work tirelessly to keep our school a safe and orderly place for all students. We are very proud of the success we are experiencing in implementing Positive Behavior Support (PBIS) in our school.

Our goal is to provide support to students in every setting in the school building, on school grounds and while traveling to and from school. To that end, we strive to implement this comprehensive approach to building positive school culture with the goal of teaching students skills that will support their efforts to be safe, responsible and respectful throughout the school day.

Having a coherent, school-wide plan is essential and has several benefits:

• It fosters a positive school climate.

• It focuses staff & student attention on appropriate behaviors and success and on students who are trying their best to meet our expectations rather than on any undesired behaviors. In this way, the school staff establishes what is important in our school as opposed to allowing students who are struggling implementing our expectations to do so.

• It increases the chance that desired behaviors are repeated.

• It reduces the time spent correcting misbehaviors and redirecting students. Any teacher can tell you about the academic cost of disciplining students, as significant loss of instructional time impacts student achievement tremendously.

Include as appropriate:

1. Classroom

2. Transitions

3. Cafeteria

4. Playground

5. Behavior on school campus during arrival to and departure from school

B. Youth Court

Youth Court provides an alternative to the mainstream student discipline and system

Youth Court is about students helping students make better decisions, transforming school environment and student empowerment. The program was piloted in 2021 in two elementary schools and has been fully implemented at the middle school and high school level. The District will be expanding the program to include more elementary schools over the next several years. Learn more about Youth Court:

• Elementary Youth Court

C. Trauma-Informed Schools

The District and Board recognizes the impact that trauma may have on the educational environment of the schools, individual student achievement, and the school community as a whole. We desire to address the effects of trauma in order to meet the academic, behavioral and professional needs of students and staff. Click to learn more about the District’s Trauma-Informed Approach to education throughout the district.

D. Restorative Practices

Restorative practices is an emerging social science that studies how to strengthen relationships between individuals as well as social connections within communities. The overarching goal of Restorative Practices is the improvement of school climate and culture by decreasing unsafe behavior and increasing prosocial interaction. Click to learn more about the District’s Restorative Practices initiative.

E. SAP

In 1986 Upper Darby School District joined the statewide effort to identify and address barriers to student success, which included alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs and mental health issues by establishing the Pa Commonwealth Student Assistance Program (SAP) in the secondary schools. The SAP Program also extends itself to the elementary level to help students and families. The District's SAP program follows the state guidelines and procedures of SAP.

The SAP is an integral part of the instructional program of Upper Darby School District. Through education and awareness programs targeting the dangers and risks associated with the use of drugs, alcohol, and tobacco we hope to eliminate a barrier to academic achievement and success. These programs contribute to the universal school-wide supports needed to build resilient schools in our district.

F. Speak Up

SpeakUp! is a nonprofit public charity dedicated to helping teens develop supportive relationships with the adults in their lives. The organization enables teens to talk openly, honestly and without judgment about difficult topics and reach out for support within their homes and schools. Upper Darby School District has partnered with

SpeakUp! to provide this service to our parents and students. Teachers, counselors, social workers, and other Upper Darby School District professionals are participating along with trained professionals from SpeakUp! to provide this chance for courageous conversations to take place between our students and the important adults in their lives.

SpeakUp! focuses on the fact that no matter what the problem is – stress, drugs, alcohol, depression, anxiety, suicide, relationships, social media or others – the solution always begins with realizing you are not alone and having the courage to speak up and ask for help. All teens benefit from learning how to have courageous conversations with important adults in their lives.

The registration for the middle and high school SpeakUp! events will be shared regularly throughout the school year. To learn more about SpeakUp! and to view upcoming events, visit here.

G. School Counselor

Upper Darby School District is committed to supporting all students in addressing their academic, behavioral, personal, social, and career development needs. See the Staff Directory for contact information for our school’s counselor(s).

H. School Social Worker

Upper Darby School District School Social Workers meet with students in grades K through 12 to offer academic and social support. They work with families, providing resources and strengthening relationships with their children and with the school. School Social Workers also work with the school staff, including teachers, administrators, counselors, psychologists, and nurses to provide important resources, consultation and information about the students, families and outside resources. They are the liaison between the school, the family and the community. See the Staff Directory for contact information for our school’s social worker(s).

Ensuring the safety and well-being of our students extends beyond the school grounds, including their journey to and from school. We expect all students to demonstrate respectful and responsible behavior while traveling, whether walking, biking, or riding public transportation. This includes following traffic rules, being considerate to others, and avoiding any behavior that could endanger themselves or others. Students should also adhere to any school or district policies related to conduct during these times. By upholding these standards, we can contribute to a safe and positive environment for everyone. For any concerns or to report issues related to student behavior on their commute, please contact the school administration or local authorities. Review the document attached below for additional information about student behavior expectations.

BORROWING LUNCH

Students are not permitted to share their food with peers due to the number of students with food allergies. At times the cafeteria will offer special healthy “tastings” to all of our students. These are usually fresh fruits or vegetables. Alternatives can be provided to students with food allergies. Be sure to notify your child’s teacher AND our school nurse about any/all known food allergies.

STUDENT ABSENCES

Consistent school attendance is necessary for successful learning. The spirit of the learning process, exciting ideas, and group discussions can never be made up after an absence. Holidays, vacations and early dismissal days are clearly noted on the school calendar. When a student is absent but is able to do homework, a parent may request to pick up books and assignments at dismissal time in the school office. Please communicate directly with your child’s teacher.

The Board considers the following conditions to constitute reasonable cause for absence from school or an excused absence:

1. Illness

2. Quarantine

3. Family emergency

4. Recovery from accident

5. Death in family

6. Family educational travel, upon written request from parents/guardians with prior written approval from the building principal. No educational travel will be approved for students required to take PSSA, Keystone or other state mandated testing, during mandatory testing periods

7. It is the policy of the Upper Darby School District to excuse pupils from school if their religious affiliation requires them to observe a holiday. Legal excusal will be granted on written request from the parent or guardian of the pupil involved.

When a child is absent from school, an explanation of absence email must be sent to:

wpes-attendance@upperdarbysd.org. Children who do not send a valid explanation of absence email within three days will be marked truant. Three truancies will be reported to the Attendance Team for further review. Following the third truancy, a family meeting will be scheduled to create a School Attendance Improvement Plan.

Westbrook Park’s attendance policy is in accordance with UDSD (Policy 204) and PA Dept. of Education Attendance policies. All Students who are absent for ten days or more, for any reason, in the current school year will be notified of their excessive absences. Please check with the principal or school nurse for assistance with ongoing illnesses that affect school attendance.

LATENESS

Excessive lateness and /or early dismissals will be considered as attendance issues. Students who arrive late must be accompanied into the office to be signed in by their parent / guardian.

If your child is going to be absent or late, please notify the office at 610-853-4510 before 9:00 AM. If you child is later than 8:50 AM, they must be accompanied by an adult to officially sign-in and complete a lateness note. Please refer to the Elementary Code of Conduct for consequences related to student lateness. Frequent lateness will warrant an investigation by the Principal and the Social Worker and/or the Department of Attendance Services.

EARLY DISMISSALS

If a child must be dismissed from school early, a note must be sent in the morning explaining the reason.

The parent/guardian picking up your child must report to the Main Office and present photo identification. They must also be listed as a contact person to sign the child out. Once the parent/guardian has arrived, the child will be called to the office and officially signed out.

School personnel, including the nurse, may NOT dispense medication without a written note from a physician. Please have your doctor indicate on the note the name of the drug and the dosage. Also, the original container holding the medicine must be clearly labeled by a pharmacy with the child’s name, drug, and dosage. Students are not permitted to bring medicines to school to take during the day including prescription medications and over the counter medications. Please call the school nurse if you need more information.
