On Friday, our West Side 5th graders rolled up their sleeves and helped harvest over 2,000 pounds of squash! 💪

The squash will go to the County Extension Office, where it will be distributed to members of our community.

We are so proud of our West Side students for showing that even small hands can make a BIG difference! ❤️ Through hard work, teamwork, and service, our students are doing their part to help build a stronger, more connected community.

Way to go, West Side 5th graders! 🌟

Congratulations to Mrs. Cramer's 4th graders for winning our Friday phone in. Today's question is a math question and with tomorrow being the pumpkin drop we thought a pumpkin math question was in order. Lets see how you do with today's question parents.
If a 50-pound 4th grader stood on one side of a giant scale, about how many 50-pound kids would it take to equal a 2,700-pound pumpkin?

A huge THANK YOU to Worland High School for inviting our West Side Elementary 4th and 5th graders to join in the pep rally assembly!

There is something pretty special about giving our students a glimpse of what’s ahead. They got to experience the energy, excitement, school spirit, and FUN that comes with being part of the high school community. Even better, they got to experience it alongside the older students they look up to!

Opportunities like this help our kids see that they are part of something bigger and give them something to look forward to as they continue their journey through school.

Thank you, WHS, for including our West Side students and making them feel like part of the team!

From West Side to NASA! West Side Elementary was honored to welcome back former Thunderbird Aaron Vigil through a special  assembly with our students. Aaron is now a mechanical engineer at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center and is part of the team working on NASA’s Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope, which is scheduled to launch this Sunday. During his virtual visit with our 5th graders, Aaron shared his journey from growing up in Wyoming and attending West Side to studying engineering at the University of Wyoming and ultimately working on one of NASA’s exciting space missions. His story was an inspiring reminder to our students that big dreams can begin right here at West Side Elementary. We are incredibly proud to call Aaron a Thunderbird and grateful that he took the time to connect with our students and encourage them to dream big and pursue their passions!
