Hello West Campus Families,

Thank you to everyone who attended the Unity Festival on Friday!   Thank you to the Foundation for putting on a fantastic event – they spent a significant effort to prepare and implement and their effort showed in the quality of the event!  Thank you to the teachers who stayed to support out Open House in conjunction with the Unity Festival. 

We are winding down our heavy testing period and have a short break before finals and the end of the year.   This week, we will be administering the Kelvin Pulse Survey to all students – this will be the second administration of this survey and we will review the data in comparison to the initial administration. 

One metric we identified from the first administration was that approximately 50% of students responded negatively to the question: “I know how to manage my stress.”  This resulted in De-Stress week.  There was other information we gained from the survey and we look forward to reviewing changes in the following groups:

• Lead Teacher Meetings
• Department/Staff Meetings
• Equity Team Meetings

Please continue reading for many updates!

Thank you,

John McMeekin – Principal
