Dear West Central Families,

Parent teacher conferences are Monday, October 19th. The West Central PTA is asking for your help to provide a meal for the staff and teachers! Hartford Subway is donating sandwiches if you'd be willing to drop off a side, drinks, or dessert to your child's school. Click the sign up genius link, https://www.signupgenius.com/go/409094EADAE23A20-66585413-october#/, and sign up for what works for you. If you have questions please reach out to the PTA at ptawestcentral@gmail.com.

Thanks for your help in supporting our teachers and staff!

Today, we welcomed 27 West Central FCCLA students to Humboldt Elementary as part of their Teens as Teachers program! These high school students spent time in our 4th-grade classrooms teaching lessons focused on character development, nutrition, and wellness. What a great way to celebrate National Be a Teacher Day and inspire future educators! 🍎💙

West Central's Educators Rising Chapter events are well under way this fall!

Educators Rising is a career-focused program that helps middle and high school students explore teaching and other education careers before they enter college. Students get hands-on experience in real classrooms, connect with current teachers and colleges, attend Learning Expos and conferences, develop leadership skills, and participate in competitions related to teaching. The overall goal is to create a “grow your own” pathway—encouraging South Dakota students to become educators and, ideally, return to teach in their own communities.

Information for today's boys' state soccer game at Viborg.

Besides hosting the soccer game, Viborg will be hosting home VB on Tuesday, also. It will be best if all West Central fans park along State St/to the E of our complex and enter through the E gate.

Viborg working on a livestream option, but don’t have the details for that, yet. They will be shares once they become available.

Asking all fans to sit on the east side of the complex. West Central fans can sit in the south sections of the grandstand. Please stay off the field and track after the contest. Viborg had to have a significant amount of dirt work redone and grass hasn’t been able to be planted. Please stay on the paved walkways.

GO TROJANS!!
