Hello West Wildcats!
As we step into November, we’re filled with gratitude for the incredible people who make West Middle School such a special community. This month, we pause to honor and celebrate our veterans in our community and around the nation who have served with courage and commitment. We are deeply thankful for their sacrifices and the example they set for our students each day. We look forward to our Veteran's Day celebration on November 14, 2025.
We also want to extend a huge thank you to our PTCO and West families for your generosity and partnership. Because of your support, our teachers will be able to purchase additional classroom supplies and materials that will enhance their lessons, sparking creativity, and increasing student engagement and academic success.
Your continued support reminds us of what’s possible when a community comes together around shared purpose and care for our students. Thank you for all you do to help West thrive.
In gratitude,
Aspen Burkett, Principal

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.
