Welcome to West Elementary, Meredith! We look forward to a fantastic school year.

We officially launched the new school year with our district-wide Essential Pieces convocation! Keynote speaker Dr. Adolph "Doc" Brown set an incredible tone for the day—using his signature blend of humor and heart to remind us of the power of leading with empathy and building genuine connections with every student.
Our educators and leaders spent the afternoon in targeted professional development breakout sessions, sharpening classroom strategies and equipping themselves to support student growth across all grade levels.
Superintendent Glen East closed out the day with inspiring words for the road ahead. The pieces are in place, and we can’t wait to welcome our Admirals back! 🎉⚓

New & Novice Orientation was full of great moments—from an energetic GHS Band performance to a special district bus tour led by Superintendent Glen East. Between breakout sessions and connecting over lunch, this incredible team is ready to inspire our students! ⚓️

Before the halls fill up this week, our Pre-K and Kindergarten students enjoyed a quiet campus to get acclimated to school life. They spent the week sharpening handwriting skills, creating art, and taking their first steps as lifelong learners.
The stage is set, and we are ready for a great school year ahead! 🎉 ⚓️
