GREAT NEWS! THE MOBILE DENTIST IS COMING BACK!
Our school has again collaborated with Smile Programs, the Mobile Dentists, to offer in-school dental care. The Mobile Dentists will visit Westfall Elementary School February 12-14. During this visit, they will offer restorative treatment (i.e., cavity fillings, etc.)
You can sign up for your child today at https://www.myschooldentist.com/32632_SCHSRM. Permission slips are also being sent home with students and must be completed and returned by February 2.
Dental care includes a complete dental exam, x-rays, cleaning, fluoride, sealants when necessary, and sometimes restorative care such as fillings.
Help keep your child healthy, in school, and learning. Go to http://www.myschooldentist.com.
If you have questions, please contact Mrs. Savage at jenica.savage@westfallschools.com or (740) 986-4008 ext. 6023.
We are so grateful to Atomic Credit Union for their recent donation of $1,000 toward purchasing a book vending machine.
What is a Book Vending Machine?
Unlike traditional vending machines that accept money, book vending machines take tokens, which are earned as a reward for positive behavior or reaching a reading goal. These tokens are used in the machine to reward students with a free book!

WES Students... or Detectives?
Westfall Elementary students have been puzzling out these clues to figure out these Masked Readers!
Remember, you can only discover the true identities of these Masked Readers at Character Quest.
Character Quest will be held at the Elementary on Wednesday, 1/24/24, from 5:30 to 7:00 PM.
You've all heard of 'The Masked Singer,' the singing show that asks: "Who is behind the mask?" Well, now, Westfall Elementary has 'The Masked Reader'!
Teachers and staff donned masks (and voice filters) while reading their favorite books. Our students are having some fun guessing who is behind the mask!

Join us at our Character Quest event on Wednesday, January 24, from 5:30 PM to 7:00 PM, where the identities of our WES Masked Readers will be revealed!

Middle School: 12:30 PM
Elementary School: 1:30 PM
Classes will not be in session for students from December 21 through January 3 to celebrate the holidays. Classes resume on Thursday, January 4, 2024.
Students in Mrs. Woods' second-grade class got in the holiday spirit by whipping up some delicious Reindeer Chow!
To make your own batch over winter break, follow the recipe below:
Cheerio & Huzzah! Did you know that December 16 was the 250th Anniversary of the Boston Tea Party? On Friday, Mrs. Eitel's fourth-graders commemorated this historic moment with a day full of fun activities and STEM challenges, along with a spot of tea and biscuits!
Our fifth-graders have been studying financial literacy for their annual trip to JA Biztown, a simulated town, allowing students the opportunity to work at businesses like State Farm, Donatos, and The Blue Jackets, earning a paycheck and budgeting their income. They loved it!
WES recently partnered with the American Red Cross to provide joy and comfort to local nursing homes this holiday season. Through generous donations from our gracious community, our students and staff stuffed several stockings and delivered them to seniors throughout the county.
Mrs. Wippel's second-graders invited special guests to their museum-style presentations of the research they have been conducting on various topics, from volleyball to deer to puppy dogs and whales. They did a great job!
UPDATE: The phone lines at Westfall Local School District are back up and running. Thank you for your patience and understanding!
