We’re a little behind on posting about Teacher Appreciation Week, but our teachers have definitely been feeling the love!
We started the week with some delicious BBQ provided by our own Mr. Curtis and Championship Martial Arts. The yummy cookies were donated by South Coast Baking/Rise Bakering Careers and Employment. Tuesday brought coffee from the Vagabond Coffee Truck along with fun dirty sodas to keep everyone going strong. Yesterday, our office team treated teachers to a baked potato bar that was a huge hit!
We can’t wait to see what today brings as we continue celebrating our amazing teachers. Thank you to everyone who has donated, supported, and helped make this week so special. We truly appreciate our community and all they do to help us celebrate the people who pour so much into our Wolves every single day!
One of our favorite days is almost here—Friday! 🎉
Not just because the weekend is around the corner, but because it’s also Snack Sale Day! Students can enjoy a fun treat, and the best part… everything is just $1! 🍿🍭
We can’t wait to see those smiles!
Today we celebrate National Nurses Day and the incredible care our school nurse provides each and every day. From helping students feel better and safe, to supporting families and staff, her impact reaches far beyond the classrooms.
We are so thankful for the compassion, patience, and dedication she brings to our school community. She is truly a steady and caring presence for our students, and we are grateful for all she does to keep our school healthy and thriving.
Be sure to join us in showing appreciation for Nurse Cara today!

On Friday, our 2nd graders had the best day exploring, playing, and learning on their field trip to the Amazeum and the park! With beautiful weather and plenty of sunshine, it was the perfect day to get outside and make memories.
We’re so thankful for our partnership with the Amazeum and the opportunities they provide for our students to learn in such engaging and meaningful ways. Days like this truly bring learning to life and create moments our students will remember for years to come.

There’s just something special about parachute day—it’s always a favorite and one of those core memories our students (and teachers!) will carry with them for years to come. From laughter and teamwork to big smiles all around, these are the moments that make school so meaningful.
We love seeing our students learn, play, and create memories together!

We were Howling with Pride over these Wolves! They were recognized for keeping our PACK promise. 🐺💙
On Wednesday, we had the joy of celebrating our amazing residents (interns) who have spent this school year learning alongside their mentor teachers and pouring into our students each and every day.
Their growth, dedication, and commitment to our school community have been incredible to watch. We are so proud of all they’ve accomplished this year and the impact they’ve already made in the lives of our students.
A special thank you to the University of Arkansas for your continued partnership and support in helping develop the next generation of educators. We are truly grateful!

Today we celebrated Mrs. Crumby for National Principals' Day in a BIG way!
Our Wolves rolled out the "red carpet" just for her to show how much she means to our school community. From the smiles in the hallways to the excitement from our students, it was a day full of appreciation and joy.
Mrs. Crumby, thank you for your leadership, your heart for our students, and the way you make our school such a special place. We love you more than we love comfy pants day!

Parents, tomorrow is the final day of our summative testing for 3rd–5th grade students. We understand that schedules can be busy, but if possible, please try to reschedule any appointments so students can test with their cohort. We appreciate your support in helping our Wolves finish strong!
Reminder for 3rd–5th grade families:
Tomorrow is another day of testing. Please help your child do their best by making sure they get a good night’s rest, arrive at school on time, and come ready to focus. A healthy breakfast and encouraging words in the morning can make a big difference. We are proud of our students and know they will do great!
Our first graders did an amazing job and truly shined on stage last night with their beautiful singing and confidence. We are so proud of all the hard work they put into preparing for this special performance.
A big shoutout to Mr. Stewart for working so hard to help students be ready to show their very best—your dedication made the night so special! And thank you to Mrs. Feltner for the beautiful flower decorations on the back of the stage that made the performance even more magical.
It was a night full of music, smiles, and proud moments for our students and families!

Today our 5th graders welcomed our very own Mrs. Lilly-Westwood and Helen Tyson social worker and special guest Mr. O-6th grade middle school counselor from Helen Tyson. Students were able to see a video from former wolves answering questions about middle school and also ask new questions.
Our 3rd-5th grade students did a fantastic job on testing this morning! We are so proud of the hard work, focus, and perseverance they showed. Our Wolves came ready to do their best!
Tomorrow is another testing day, so please help students be ready by making sure they get a good night’s rest and arrive to school on time. A strong start to the day makes a big difference!
Thank you, families, for your support and encouragement. We know our 3rd-5th grade students will shine again tomorrow!
💛🌟 This week we are celebrating Ms. Andrea Gaucin, one of our amazing student residents at Westwood! 🍎✨
Ms. Gaucin goes above and beyond in her role, always bringing energy and creativity into the classroom. She plans fun, engaging science activities and is constantly thinking of new ways to make learning exciting for students. 🔬🎉 She’s never afraid to jump in and help with anything that’s needed, and her positive impact is felt not only by students, but by staff as well. We can only imagine how incredible she’ll be as a future teacher — she is already making such a difference at Westwood! 🌟💛
Creativity was on full display in Ms. Lopez’s 4th grade as students designed their collage burgers in Art class with Ms. Combs! 🍔
From imaginative toppings to colorful creations, our students showed off so much creativity and had a blast bringing their ideas to life. We love seeing learning mixed with fun in such creative ways!

Our 3rd–5th grade Wolves are ready to shine on their summative tests next week! Testing will take place Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday, and we know our students are prepared to do their best.
Families, you can help by making sure students get plenty of sleep, arrive at school on time, and come ready to show what they know each day. Encouragement goes a long way!
A big thank you to the Springdale High School cheer squad for visiting and motivating our students to work hard and believe in themselves. Your support helped get our Wolves pumped up and ready to succeed! Let’s cheer on our students as they show all they’ve learned!
