Picking Up Students:

Students will return from Spring Break on Wednesday, April 3rd.

Good Sunday Evening, West Salisbury Tiger Families! This is Mrs. Harrington, your Dean of Students, and I'm delighted to bring you some roaring updates from West Salisbury Elementary.
First on our list is attendance. Please remember attendance is crucial for your child's education. Every absence and tardiness adds up, impacting your child's learning. We emphasize this because your child's education is invaluable. Our Tiger Cubs deserve the best, and that starts with consistent attendance. Your efforts to ensure they attend school on time each day by 8:45 are deeply appreciated.
Parents please remember in order to change your child’s transportation at dismissal you must send in a note to the office (email, written note, or come in an write a note) and it must be turned in by 2:00 p.m. to Ms. Morton, Mrs. Boggs, or Mrs. Chandler so that they can make the adjustment for that child to change their transportation. If not the child will go home by the normal mode of transportation. This is for the safety of the child.
As we gear up for another exciting week, make sure to get a good night's sleep tonight. We can't wait for the learning, laughter, and memorable moments that await us at West Salisbury Elementary. Tigers, let me hear you roar – ROAR!!
