At registration we will be providing you more information about our school, your scholar's class schedule, our bell schedules, free lunch application, free AC transit pass, information about lockers & gym clothes (please bring about $30 if you plan on buying gym clothes from us), and much more. You will also complete several forms for us so please allow at least 1 hour to complete the entire registration process. You can drop in during any of the above times for your scholar's grade level.

School begins on Monday, August 21st and this year we will have a new start & dismissal time. School starts each day at 8:55 and ends at 3:05, except on Wednesdays when we end at 1:02 with an optional lunch after school until 1:37. You will receive a welcome letter from me in the mail in late July with more details about our bell schedule and the upcoming school year. Please also make sure you listen to my weekly parent update that will call you at 6:00PM each Friday during the school year for important information.

That's all for now- "Stay Fly & SOAR!" and please remember to Take Care of Yourself, Take Care of One Another, and Take Care of Westlake!
