First Day Back to School 2024-2025

Dear Parents/Guardians/Students,

Here is our proposed schedule for the first day back to school. To stay updated daily, please download our Westview School App and the MySchoolDay brochure – Students and Parents info here. This app lets you know what’s happening daily at the school and is a very important source of school information as well as our website.

September 3 – 6, 2024

We will send out any communication regarding details about our first two weeks back in September around the end of August.  For now, our tentative schedule for September 3-6 is as follows:

Sept 3:

Students should arrive early at the time below to find their homeroom advisory class and head to that room. Any questions about school supplies, timetables and lockers will be discussed at this time.
