This year, we will be updating our security procedures. If you will be visiting/volunteering in the school, please bring in a picture ID, and we will give you a visitor/volunteer badge. We will hold the ID in the office while you are in the building and return your ID to you when you return the badge.
We will not collect IDs for Open House, Parent-Teacher Conferences, or field trips; thank you!

Westside Read-a-thon Fall 2023
Westside will once again be partnering with Get Movin' Fund Hub for our fall fundraiser. Information will be sent home with students in late September with details. We will be raising money to help offset the cost of student field trips, provide enrichment activities for our students, and help out with the costs of various special classroom and school-wide activities. We are also looking at the possibility of creating an outdoor classroom. We will be attempting to find some grant money to help assist with that project, but will keep you updated as we gather more information.

The Den Food Market - Open Tuesdays
The School District of Reedsburg Food Market, The Den, is a FREE food market that is available to all students, staff, and community members. There are no income requirements or applications that need to be completed. The Den drive-thru for community members is open most Tuesdays (see schedule below) from 3:30-5:30 p.m. (or until all of the boxes have been distributed.) The distribution may end at an earlier time each week if the supply for that day runs out.

Dear Parents,
Schools are successful when they help children grow academically, socially, and emotionally. For this to happen, it is important that we have a safe environment that is supportive and conducive for growth. By setting forth clear social and behavioral expectations and directly teaching students about those expectations, it is our goal to continue to have a positive atmosphere for optimal learning. We are excited to inform our families that Pineview and Westside Elementary School are participating in Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS). PBIS is a school-wide system that includes proactive strategies for teaching, modeling, and reinforcing appropriate student behavior. We are using this program to help our students have a safe, positive learning environment and to provide consistency in all areas of our schools.
We have adopted a unified set of behavioral expectations. You will see these expectations posted throughout the schools, and your child will be learning them during the first weeks of school. Our unified classroom rules will be found in every classroom and in non-classroom settings in the school. The behavioral expectations are as follows:
“ Be Safe, Be Kind, and Be Responsible”
