APPLE-solutely the best!

We hope you enjoy a little Friday pop-up surprise for APPLE-solutely the best teachers!  It's been a busy week back after the break - and we will have another action packed week next week! Yesterday was a great day celebrating Mrs. Maddox, as she unveiled her handprints along the Marietta Square!  In her remarks she shared how she represents the hard work, commitment, and heart of every educator at West Side and in Marietta.  I know she was proud to represent our school! There is LOTS of important information in Stinger Stats.  Please take time to read through the information carefully.  If we can support in any way as we head into a few busy weeks, please do not hesitate to reach out!
