We've been hard at work adjusting to life at school and starting to work on our pre-academic skills. Check out our snipping and gluing!

The girls golfers participated in a scramble at ASCC with O'Neill, Valentine, and Ainsworth today. All three West Holt teams placed in the top 4. Sadie, Ansley, and Maizy placed 4th with an 80. Madisyn, Megan, Elizabeth, and Alyssa placed 2nd with a 78. Daleni, Brinley, and Hannah placed 1st shooting a 70!

To kick off the school year, our 4th graders listened to The Day You Begin by Jacqueline Woodson—a story about courage, celebrating differences, and discovering belonging.
Afterward, students worked in groups to uncover as many things they had in common as possible. From favorite foods to hobbies to family traditions, they realized they share more than they thought!
Using their “commonality cards,” each group took on a team-building challenge: building the tallest structure possible. The classroom was filled with laughter, teamwork, and creativity as students practiced communication, problem-solving, and collaboration.
