🍩 National Donut Day

The summer break is just starting, but our Puma pride never stops! Today, we are celebrating National Donut Day and wishing all of our amazing families a sweet start to the season. Whether you like them glazed, sprinkled, or filled, we hope your Friday is full of fun and delicious treats.

🎉 What is your favorite donut flavor to enjoy today?

ICYMI: The WPS Board of Education passed a new cell phone policy that aims to help students stay more focused during the day, reduce distractions, and improve both academic performance and student mental health outcomes. So far, we’ve seen a positive reaction from parents and staff alike, and we’re feeling hopeful about the results we’ll see next year.

The Kickoff & Celebration 🎉

☀️ Summer is officially here, and our amazing Pumas are already crushing the ultimate Summer Reading Challenge on the Sora app! We are incredibly proud to celebrate our very first milestone reader who has already logged over 100 minutes of reading

🥳 Parents, your student can join the fun by logging into Sora via Clever or visiting soraapp.com/library/wpsco, clicking the "Me" tab, and entering the secret code 48F7RMVC to unlock the challenge with the red llama. Let’s keep those reading muscles strong all summer long for a chance to win awesome prizes in the fall! 🏆

Big news for our Puma family! 🏀

We are incredibly proud to celebrate our school counselor, Ms. Diana Lopez Chambers, for her induction into the inaugural Westy Athletic Hall of Fame!

Ms. Chambers helped lead Ranum High School to its only State Championship in school history before continuing her amazing basketball career at Regis.

We are so lucky to have such a legendary athlete and inspiring role model guiding our students every day. Help us congratulate her on this historic achievement—Proud to be a Puma! 🏆✨
