Coming Soon! Hello Parents, Be on the lookout for a colorful Parent Information Envelope coming home soon! You will find important information about a safe and easy way your family can help our school get the essential tools our students and teachers need to succeed. It will also let you know how your child can win fun prizes just for helping! Thanks, Westview Primary School

Due to forecasts for continued severe weather resulting in area power outages, and concerns regarding impacts on roads and facilities throughout the evening, Berkeley County School District (BCSD) schools and offices will operate on a 2-hour weather delay on Wednesday, January 10. There will be no before school care programs, but after school programs and athletics will resume normal operations on Wednesday. Bus riders will report to bus stops two hours later than their regularly scheduled time. Information concerning school start times and bell schedules when operating on a 2-hour weather delay is available on the BCSD website here: https://www.bcsdschools.net/o/bcsd/page/school-bell-schedules. District officials are continuing to work closely with the Berkeley County Emergency Management Department, local power providers, and law enforcement to monitor the weather and potential impact on the county. Officials are also receiving regular updates from the National Weather Service. As safety and security is our number one priority, all decisions are made with the safety of students, staff, and families in mind.

We hope everyone is enjoying our Winter break! We are excited to see students return on January 4, 2024! Help us celebrate the new year with pictures of our students for the lobby TV! Parents can email pictures to ellisb@bcsdschools.net. Feel free to include your child’s new year goal (resolution).

Tomorrow will be an eLearning day for WVP students. Students will learn from home. Please look for eLearning information from your child's teacher. Attached is an eLearning Choice Board from Mr. Raisley our Music teacher.

Due to the potential for severe weather on Tuesday, January 9, Berkeley County School District (BCSD) announced that students will learn from home and complete eLearning Day assignments on Tuesday. All schools and offices will be closed Tuesday. Schools and offices will resume normal operations on Wednesday, January 10.  MORE INFO: https://www.bcsdschools.net/article/1398844

Congratulations to Sarah!! She won an iPad from the Child Nutrition Office for eating breakfast everyday during National School Breakfast Week!

Congratulations to Mrs. Liza Troutman. She was one of 34 BCSD teachers who won STEAM grants, $2500, from Santee Cooper. Her grant will focus on supporting students in Math.

It's been a busy, fun week in STEAM. The kiddos have completed week 2 of being a mechanical engineer. Their paintbrushes are built and will be tested and evaluated next week. They will actually be painting with them and deciding how they can improve their product. Most of them admitted this was more difficult than they originally thought....they had to use their BRAINS, and they persevered and did an amazing job!! I'm very proud of them all! Some of our classes learned I love you in sign language too! Have a great weekend everyone!
