About Us
Principal's Message
Welcome to the Western Oaks Elementary website. We hope this site will provide students and parents with useful information. You will also find website and e-mail links to our faculty and staff, and links to school events and important district information.
Western Oaks Elementary is a great school and the students and staff work together to reach their potential. We believe it is important for schools and parents to work together to do what is best for kids. We encourage parents to know what is going on at school, and as a school we will do our best to communicate to parents how their child is progressing. If you have questions, concerns, or suggestions feel free to contact me.
Let’s make it a great year for learning!
Stephanie Treadway, Principal
Things You Should Know
School Day— Our school day is from 8:30 a.m. until 3:30 p.m.
Before School — Students may enter the building at 8:00 a.m. at which time they may go to the cafeteria for breakfast, or to their classrooms. Students arriving between 8:15 and 8:30 should go straight to their classroom. If a student arrives after 8:30 a.m. they should go to the office for a tardy slip, then report to their classroom.
Warrior Wake-Up — We have a school-wide assembly on Friday mornings at 8:15 in the gym. Parents and patrons are welcome to attend.
Dismissal — Students are dismissed from class at the end of the day according to how they get home. Day Care riders are dismissed at 3:25 to go to the gym and wait for their ride. Walkers are dismissed at 3:30. Bus riders are released at 3:30 to meet in their designated area then walk to their bus. Car riders are released at 3:25 to go to the gym and wait for their ride.
Thursday Folders — Thursday Folders are teacher/parent communication folders that go home with students each Thursday. They contain schoolwork and other information from the school or teacher. Parents are welcome to use this folder to communicate with their student’s teacher.
Discipline Folders — Discipline Folders are a tool used by the school to communicate with parents about their student’s conduct at school. If there is a problem at school the teacher will sign the student’s green discipline folder and send it home with the student that day for the parent to sign and the student to bring back to school the next day. All discipline folders will also be sent home on Thursdays in the Thursday Folder.
