Dear Parent/Guardian,

Here is some specific information you will need to know regarding your child(s) start up for the 2024-2025 school year.

Grade 8 Orientation – Open House

On Tuesday, August 27 from 10:00am – 12:00pm we are hosting the Grade 8 Orientation Day Open House. We are so excited to be welcoming our new cohort of Grade 8s to Westview!

Grade 8s are welcome to drop by during this time to get a treat and have a look around the school to familiarize themselves before Sept 3. We will have student leaders on hand to give tours & answer questions. Parents, Guardians & Caregivers are welcome to attend.

First week of School for Grade 8s

The first day of classes for ALL students is September 3. On September 6, after our Grades 8s have had a chance to settle into their new school, we will be holding a Grade 8 Orientation to High School Day as part of the regular schedule and lunch will be provided. Parents, Guardians & Caregivers do not attend this day.

Grade 8 Parent Night

And don’t forget to “Save the Date!” Grade 8 Parent Night @ WSS September 19 – more details to follow in Sept. Parents, Caregivers and Students are welcome! Hope to see you there!

New student Orientation – Open House

The Westview Counselors will be holding a New Student Orientation on August 29th from 1:00pm – 2:30pm. This is open to all students who are new to our catchment area. Please note this is not for incoming catchment grade 7s or new International students as they have their own separate events taking place. We will provide a school tour and a run-down of how our timetable works while welcoming you to our great school!

Advisories and Timetables

All Advisory’s will be posted inside the main foyer on Friday, August 30. Students are welcome to come by and see where they will need to go on Sept 3. Timetables will be handed out during Advisory on Sept 3. You should also be able to view this on your MyClass account by August 30th.
