Campus Changes

COVID-19 has required everyone to do things differently, but sometimes those changes make us better. One of the more noticeable changes is hiring a school nurse for the first time in Westview history. Other changes, like temperature checks in carpool and wearing masks, enable staff and students to stay healthy in school and engaged in the classroom. We even re-invented traditional events like Dads’ Day, which allowed parents and caregivers the opportunity to “tune in” to see their kids in the classroom.

NURSE ANA

The Westview School has hired a School Nurse! We are so excited to welcome to Mirjana Meraja (Nurse Ana) to our campus this year. Ana is a registered nurse with over three years’ experience in school nursing. She also holds a BSN in nursing and will be responsible for the Westview Health Clinic located in the 1900 building.

Temp Checks at Carpool

One change parents saw upon return to The Westview School last fall was our daily carpool procedure. New carpool routes plus weekly health screening forms were just a few of the precautions put in place to keep carpool flowing smoothly and student health in the forefront. All students are temperature checked before exiting their vehicle to ensure temperature readings are below 100 degrees.

Dads’ Day Goes Virtual

Westview LOVES our dads, and every year, we set aside a day to celebrate them! This year we changed our school day connection from in-person to online. From dad crafts to dad dress-up, the excitement of celebrating the special role dads play in the growth and development of our students remained strong for our community. More of the same is planned for our annual grandparents’ and moms’ days.

MASKED UP

Our students are rocking their masks! 95% of Westview students have opted for in-person instruction. Wearing masks indoors, combined with social distancing and frequent handwashing, is a crucial component in keeping everyone healthy.
