The leaves are beginning to fall outside, but the Westside creativity tree is as full as ever. As part of a schoolwide project, Mr. McClurg allowed every art student to create their own unique leaf. What was once a bare tree trunk, has turned into a stunning collaboration! Stop by the art room during conferences to check out this cool Westside creation!
After receiving a visit from the Tulsa Zoo, second grade students were able to extend their learning by dissecting owl pellets. Owl pellets may seem gross but they keep a great record of what owls have eaten. These classes studied to learn more about owls and the ecosystems in which they live.
Sudents were able to examine an owl's diet and identify its place in the food web. They also utilized diagrams to determine the names of bones and which creatures they might belong to. Great job making observations, Westies!

We're waiting for the Food Network to pick up our new special, Cooking with Classen. Mrs. Classen's class blows us away with the delicious treats they make during their Friday lessons.

Today was such an exciting day! Our fearless leaders, Mrs. Hinds and Mrs. Ratcliff, took a group of students on the Zebra bus to eat lunch at Pizza Hut. These students raised dough for the dough by selling 25 or more fundraiser items. They had a wonderful time!
We also get to celebrate our top two sellers and this year's Westside prince and princess, Dallas White and Finley Faulconer. These students worked extremely hard to reach their selling goals. They received this honor by raising the most money for our school. We are so proud!
Huge thank you to everyone who assisted with this fundraiser. We are truly appreciative of the support for our amazing school.
