PRINCIPAL’S NEWSLETTER
August 2007 ______________
______________________________ ____
_Volume 46, Number 1
Dear West High Parents and Students,
Welcome to the 2007-2008 school year at West High School. This is an exciting time of year for all of us as the
fall presents a time for new beginnings and an opportunity to refocus on the importance of setting and reaching goals for
the year. West is a fantastic school for many reasons and the hard work of the faculty, staff and students this summer will
result in another successful year for all members of the school community. Having just received a six-year accreditation
term in our WASC review, we look forward to another productive year of learning, growth, and accomplishments as we
begin the implementation of our goals and action plan.
I am honored to take on the new challenge of principal at West High School. I have served in a variety of
capacities at West for more than 10 years, and I will continue to work with students and parents to provide the best
possible educational environment for every student. There are many opportunities for students at West to excel and we
would like you, the parents, to join us in encouraging students to view school as an opportunity to improve their lives and
create a pathway to the future. We have a proud tradition at West of “Excellence in Education” and it is our expectation
that we all work together to perpetuate this tradition. We want every student to do their best and to maximize their
individual potential.
I invite you to be involved in our school, not only working with your student at home but in the many volunteer
groups such as Booster Clubs, School Site Council, Advisory Committees, and PTSA.
This newsletter contains all of the dates you should be aware of for the start of the school year including
registration, the first day of school and Back to School Night. Please mark these dates on your calendars.
I look forward to meeting you and wish you and your student the best for a successful school year.
Sincerely,
Mr. Ben Egan
Principal

Collaboration Schedule 2007-2008
Because we seek continued improvement and have an improvement plan based on the WASC accreditation
process, we have scheduled a series of staff development days for teacher collaboration. Started several years ago, and
highly successful for their intended purpose, these days will again require early dismissal for students. After students
leave for the day, teachers and administrators will meet by department or as an entire faculty to assess student work and
plan strategies for the improvement of student learning, as required by the WASC improvement plan.
Students will attend all their classes on collaboration days; class periods will be shortened. The school day will
end on these days at 1:21 p.m. The regular school day will resume the next day. Please mark your calendars for the
following collaboration days, all Tuesdays.

PTSA President's Message
I am excited about serving my second year as PTSA President at West. This last year, I was overwhelmed at the
volunteer response that I saw and again look forward to working with many wonderful people. We have many
opportunities for parents to volunteer here at West. In September, we begin with our one and only fundraiser, the football
snack bar. In October, we have our annual Back to School Bake Sale which helps support our scholarship fund. We
continue on with Red Ribbon Week, Honorary Service, College Fair, Parent Ed. Night, Grad Night, and so much more.
Take some time to read through the packet, fill out the volunteer form and return it with your student on registration day or
before.
PTSA is where it all starts – parents, teachers and students working together to help make our school the best. I
encourage you to become a member of the PTSA along with your student. Remember students, you too can be part of
the PTSA by joining. Seniors, if you plan to apply for a scholarship…a membership is a must! Fill out the PTSA
membership form and return it on registration day and don’t forget to buy your 2008 PTSA membership pin.
This year the PTSA newsletter will again be mailed home for all parents and students to enjoy. The newsletter contains a
lot of important information regarding school policy, what to look forward to, a school calendar, and much more. Look for
our first issue in September along with the PTSA West High directory. Again, I look forward to the 2007-2008 school year.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me!
Enjoy your summer and see you in September.
Cheryl Pivovaroff
PTSA President

Important Information About School Funding and Student Attendance
As a result of Senate Bill 727, beginning July 1, 1998, school districts no longer receive funding from the State of
California for pupils who are absent from school. This includes all absences, even those for illness, medical or doctor
appointments, or for the purpose of attending funeral services of a member of the immediate family. In other words,
schools receive state funding only for students who are actually in attendance at school.
If you find it necessary to keep your child out of school for reasons other than an illness, we encourage you to send
your child to school for at least a part of the day so that your child will not be counted absent and also will not miss out on
important class assignments. We encourage you as parents to reinforce the importance of good school attendance and to
make every effort to send your child to school on a regular basis.
Affidavits of Residence
Students attending West High on an Affidavit of Residence must renew it each year. The student and guardian will
need to schedule an appointment with the Dean of Students at West High. Appointments will be scheduled on August 1,
2, 3, or after September 5.
Discipline Policy and Procedures Outlined
Discipline policies and procedures are outlined in the student handbook, Warrior Ways, which each student will
receive on the first day of school. The West High “Discipline Procedures” pamphlet further describes disciplinary violations
and their consequences as does the TUSD Discipline Matrix included in the summer packet. We request that you and
your student carefully review these policies.
Change of Address
Families are required to report to us, in writing, a change of address within thirty (30) calendar
days of moving. Proof of this change is also required (current ORIGINAL gas, electric or cable
bill). New green emergency cards must also be completed. Failure to report changes of
address may result in withdrawal from West High School.
Discipline Policy Highlights:
 Please read the enclosed 2007 - 2008 TUSD Discipline Matrix carefully.
 West High randomly uses a Breathalyzer at every school dance, on and off campus, sponsored by West High
School. The Breathalyzer may also be used at any other school activity or during school hours if a student is
suspected of being under the influence of alcohol. Remember every person who possesses, consumes, sells,
gives, or delivers to any other person, any alcoholic beverage in or on any public school house, or any of the
grounds thereof, is guilty of a misdemeanor (BPC 25608).
 Bullying and harassment are not acceptable behaviors. Students committing offences related to bullying and/or
harassment are subject to penalties, which may include suspension, adjustment transfer, and possible expulsion.
 The TUSD School Board has approved the use of dogs on campus for the purpose of detecting students in
possession of drugs. They will be used randomly on campus throughout the year to ensure the safety of all
students.
 Students who receive two or more U’s on their quarter report card will lose dance privileges until the next report
card.
NEW TUSD POLICY
VOLUNTEER ASSISTANCE ON CAMPUS
The District recognizes and acknowledges the service volunteers and guests contribute and the
additional responsibilities of ensuring the health and safety of the students they serve.
Visitors and guests will be required to sign in and out at the Principal’s office as well as show their
drivers license or photo identification.
Volunteers, those who serve on a regular or ongoing basis, will also be required to complete a
Volunteer Application/Agreement and have a Megan’s Law Background Check completed prior to rendering
service. Proof of a current negative Tuberculosis test is also required.

West High’s School Site Council, the advisory committee that makes decisions regarding our school budget, climate and policies, has a

community are welcome to attend our meetings.
Please submit or fax your self-nomination to the West office by 3:00 p.m. September 28, 2007. During Back-to School night on
