  Important Information & Frequently Asked Questions

Dear Parents,

The West Texas Elementary staff have worked diligently to prepare distance learning materials for our students as well as to establish communications systems for providing support to families, and we greatly appreciate your patience as we set up and roll out these systems. We know that this is a unique situation and can be very stressful for everyone. Although our instruction looks different than usual, please know that we are committed to providing continued quality instruction for our students, and we are here to help you!

We are mindful of the challenges that this situation has created for many families, and we are doing our best to limit the amount of coursework that we ask the students to complete and also to be selective with the types of assignments that we provide to students. Many teachers are offering online learning via Google Classroom or have provided electronic copies of the assignments on their websites for your convenience. However, we are happy to provide you with a paper copy of the coursework if needed. Also, if you would like additional instructional materials for your child, many of the teachers have added educational website information to their webpages for you to use at your discretion. If you’d like additional p.e., music, character counts, and library resources for your child while he/she is learning at home, Coach Seymour, Miss Bell, Mrs. Graves, and Mrs. VanHuss have also added some fun optional activities to their webpages.

All of our teachers have updated their West Texas Elementary webpages with important instructional and contact information in hopes of providing you a "one-stop-shop" for information. We hope that this uniform platform for communication makes it easy for you to access information. To access the teachers' pages, select “Elementary Faculty” at the top of our webpage and choose your child’s grade level.

As stressful as this time may be, we hope our families can enjoy this time together and stay safe and healthy. We miss our kiddos dearly and can't wait to get back to "normal" so that we can be with them again! Until then, please do not hesitate to contact the main office or your child's teacher if there is anything that we can do to help you.

Sincerely,

Shawna Lamb, Principal

Frequently Asked Questions

Where can I find information about the instructional supports/coursework that is being provided for students?

Each teacher has updated his/her West Texas Elementary webpage to include information about the instructional supports and coursework that he/she is providing to students. Their webpages also include information about other supports that each teacher is offering to help their students be successful, such as Zoom conferences to allow students and parents to ask questions.

What do I do if I need supplies for my child while he/she is learning at home?

Contact the main office, and we will do our best to provide you with all the needed supplies.

How should we submit completed work?

The safest way to submit completed work is to submit it electronically. This can be achieved by taking a photo of the work and emailing it to your child's teacher(s) or submitting it via Google Classroom if your child's teacher is providing assignments through the Google Classroom platform. Sometimes regular photos do not email well. However, if you own an iPhone, you can open the "Notes" application, choose the "camera" icon at the bottom of the page, select "Scan Documents," scan all of the documents to be submitted and then email them to your child's teacher.

We will accept completed paper packets if needed but would prefer to receive documents electronically if at all possible. Completed work will be accepted each Monday during packet pick-up.

How can I get meals for my children?

Families can pick up meals (breakfast & lunch) each Monday and Wednesday from 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.

The pick-up location is behind the West Texas Elementary School Cafeteria. Meals are free of charge to children ages 1-18, and the children do not have to attend PSPCISD to receive a meal. If you choose to pick-up a meal(s) for your family, please remain in your car, and PSP staff will deliver the meals to your vehicle.

Daily Zoom Conferences by Grade-Level

Zoom conferences are being offered each weekday in an effort to provide families with support and an opportunity to ask questions and to get assistance with coursework. Individual Zoom conferences are also available upon request. Please contact your child's teacher(s) by email to request a private Zoom conference.
