Exciting News in 5/6

Hi Westgate Families!
 
We are excited to announce that the Varela family has a new member! Please join us in expressing our heartfelt congratulations to Mr. Varela and his family! The birth happened over the weekend and so Mr. Varela will out for the next three weeks as planned so he is able to get to know his new little one. Mr. Varela has provided plans and a long-term sub will be in his classes until he returns on Monday, September 9th.  Mrs. Dewar and the 5-6 team will be supporting the substitute along the way as well. Please direct any specific questions or concerns during Mr. Varela's absence to Mrs. Dewar, our 5-8 Assistant Principal. Thank you for your understanding as Mr. Varela and his family adjust to their new normal.

Week of August 12th

Hello!
 
This month we are focusing on R.I.S.E. Students spent the last week focusing on respect. This week we will be discussing I, integrity. Students will demonstrate and model integrity in the POD, in the classroom, at Lunch, and at Recess. 
 
Integrity is:
  • Honesty​
  • Making good decisions to help yourself and others​
  • Being a good friend​
  • Following good morals​
  • Accepting responsibility for actions​
  • Doing the right thing even when no one is watching

Welcome Back!

Hello!

Welcome to the 2024/2025 school year! I am so excited to get to know you all! This week is going to be a fun and busy week! We will be going over our school and class policies and expectations, R.I.S.E. We will also be completing “get to know you” activities as well as going over our schedules! We will set up their computers and begin transitioning to different subjects.

 

Something important to know about our classroom. We are a nut free classroom. I am deathly allergic to nuts and any products that contain nut or nut oil including coconut oil. This is an airborne allergy, meaning that nut being in the room will cause an allergic reaction. Please, do not pack any snack or lunch food that contains any kind of nuts. Some examples of nuts are peanuts, tree nuts, hazel nut, coconut, Brazil nut, cashew, pistachio. Please check your lunches before they come to our class.

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to email me.

See you all Monday!

Mrs. Lounsbury!
