Here is our September PBIS newsletter
We beat the heat for another week and hopefully for the last time this summer! I want to remind everyone that we do not have school on September 4th or September 7th. We hope you enjoy your 4 Day weekend with friends and family, and we will see you all back in the building on Tuesday September 8th! Next week we have High Attendance Day on September 9th, and our Goal is to have the Highest Attendance rate in the County!! Every Tiger Counts!! We want to celebrate what it means to Belong to the Tiger Family all day long on Wednesday and it will also be an all out Tiger Spirit dress up day! Picture day is on Thursday of next week as well! For this picture day, all students will have their picture taken even if you choose not to purchase pictures. Thank you all for supporting West Louisville and helping our students learn what it means to Be a Tiger each and every day! Enjoy your holiday weekend.
Happy Final days of August, Tiger Family! This week has been so amazing here at West Louisville! We are wrapping up MAP testing this week and our students have worked so hard to show us what they know! We will use those scores to build our intervention groups for WIN time and help focus on making sure every student is successful at reaching their goals throughout the school year! Next Tuesday night is our Annual Curriculum Night from 5:30-6:30. We want to invite all of our families to join us for this chance to hear a little more about Title 1 funding, Student-Parent Compact, Clubs and Activities, and to talk with the classroom teachers about their classroom expectations! One lucky family will be going home with a Door Prize Movie Night basket valued at $100! Don't forget that we Do NOT have school this Friday or the following Monday. Enjoy your 4 day weekend with your families!
Belong, Believe, Be a Tiger!

Our students are rocking and rolling with success this week! It has been great to see every class hard at work each day and digging
into their content! I want to take a moment to thank all of our families for a very smooth start to the school year with registration,
student fees, paperwork and school supplies! Your support from home has helped us kick off this school year with success! We have a few clubs starting up for the school year (Running, Cheer, Orff Ensemble), so please make sure to send a note for your child each week with permission to stay for the club and details on how they will get home. We are excited to offer all of these great opportunities for our students!
Fall Festival is less than a month away, so if you own a business or have any connections for donations we would love your support!
Next week is going to be an amazing week!

Our first full week of school has been amazing! Every class has been diving into Reading, Writing and Math for this school year
along with learning how to Be a Tiger each day! I want to give a huge shoutout to Mrs. Shain for planning our 2026 Ag Day! It was a
morning full of memories for every single student! We also want to thank the Apollo High School FFA and all of our community
partners for making the day possible. This is just another great example of what makes West Louisville a great community to live
and serve in!
Stay cool this weekend and make sure that the kids stay hydrated through the heat!

Welcome to May! KSA testing will be happening daily this week for 4th and 5th grade, so please do your best to support the students with plenty of sleep, a good meal, and lots of positive energy! Our students have worked extremely hard this year, and we can't wait to let them shine bright on the KSA Test and show everyone else how much they can achieve! Our 3rd graders will test the following week, so they are continuing to work hard and learn every day right along with our Kindergarten, First, and Second Grade students. Once testing is wrapped up, we have tons of fun in store for the students, so let's finish the year strong and enjoy our time together. If you haven't finished your online registration for next year, please get that completed as soon as possible to help plan for success next year.
Have a Great Weekend!

Can you all believe we have already reached the end of April? The school year is winding down fast, but we are still working hard! We kicked off our testing season with a fun assembly from Remix!! They reminded the students to get plenty of sleep, eat a healthy breakfast, and always arrive on time!! They also talked about always having a great attitude with testing and trying your best, even when it gets really hard! We hope that you will help support our students from home by reminding them of these things each day! I want to give a huge shoutout to Mr. Wilson, Mrs. Tapp, Mrs. Thompson, and Mr. Jackson for a great K/1st grade performance! It was a fantastic display of all of the musical skills the students have learned this year! Only 18 more days of school!!
Have a Great Weekend!

What a wonderful first week back from Spring Break! The students have jumped right back into learning and they are pushing hard through our final weeks of this school year! I want to say an extra special thank you to our Kitchen Staff under the leadership of Mrs. Brenda for an amazing Easter Community meal! We had almost 200 guests in our building throughout the day, and everyone was able to eat a delicious meal with family, and leave with a smile on their faces. Community involvement is part of what makes West Louisville such a special place! As the weather continues to improve this spring, please remember that your students will be spending at least 20 minutes outside each day. Please make sure they are dressed in comfortable clothing and safe shoes for outside play! MAP testing will also begin next week, so help our students do their very best by making sure they get plenty of sleep throughout the week and arrive at school on time every day!
Next week is BOGO Book Fair week, so we can't wait to get our students excited about Reading this Summer! We also have our final performance of the year with K and 1st on Tuesday Night at 6pm!!

It has been an amazing attendance blitz for the past two weeks. We came up just a little short in the district blitz this week even
though we had the 4th highest attendance, but we did have great attendance all week long. For our School-Level Challenge, we ended
with a tie between Mrs. Luckett and Ms. Lawrence's AM Preschool, so both classes will enjoy a pizza party soon! Our candy bar sales
have been absolutely amazing, but they end next week! Please make sure you get the $80/box returned by Thursday. Also just a
reminder that Spring Break starts on Friday of this week. When we return from Spring Break, we will be focusing on MAP testing and our
final push before KSA so let's finish the year strong!!
Please take a moment and help us plan for Title 1 next year by completing the survey linked below.
