Attendance
Attendance at Westlake Charter is very important. Please use the 2015-2016 Academic Calendar as a guide for the best days and times to book appointments such as routine checkups.
School Supply Donations
At Westlake Charter School teachers work together to save families time and money on school supplies. Our school has access to large discounts on these school supplies, and to ensure that everyone gets everything they need, WCS purchases supplies for all students in advance. All school supplies are provided, all your student needs to bring to school is an empty backpack and be ready to learn. If you would like to support our Supply Fund, please Click Here to make a donation.
Please remember to return those welcome back packets on or before the 1st day of school!
