Welcome Back to West!

Hello, I’m Mrs. Kelly, your CLC Director at West School! I’m so excited to be your school librarian this year. I hope that you had a great summer! The CLC has been remodeled, the books are on the shelf, and I’m so happy to teach in our new learning space. This summer, I took many walks with my dog, Frankie. I worked really hard in my garden and read a whole bunch of books. My favorite was The Last Human by Lee bacon. I’ll tell you all about it when I see you in class. I can’t wait to meet you all and begin this new adventure together. See you soon!

Hi Westies! I’m Mrs. Salzman, your CLC Teacher Associate. Welcome back to school. I hope you had a wonderful and relaxing summer break. I spent a lot of time this summer taking long walks with my dog Fletcher. I started a new vegetable garden, and am harvesting lots of tomatoes. I also rode my bike almost every day, and am continuing this by riding to school. I am looking forward to meeting you and helping you check out your favorite books!
