Countdown to back to school!
Ms. Andrea’s first graders completed a plant unit in May of last school year. The students used their knowledge from the unit to become gardeners. The students planted sunflowers and were tasked at growing them at home. We want to give a shout out to Maddie Inmon for her excellent job at growing her sunflower.
We would like to officially welcome Miss Katy Hayes to Westover!
My name is Katy Hayes. I grew up in Lexington and went to Westover for elementary school before graduating from LHS in 2017. I went to Mississippi State University where I graduated in December of 2022 and received my bachelors of science in education with a focus in educational psychology. I am currently attending the University of Tennessee at Martin where I am getting my master's in clinical mental health counseling. Last year I worked in the 3 year old pre-kindergarten class and am fortunate enough to be able to do so again this year. I love hockey and reading and am ecstatic to be a Westover Bear!

Voluntary PreK (VPK) is an income-based program and first priority will go to those families that qualify. Completing the Henderson County PreK application packet does not necessarily guarantee enrollment in the PreK program. Non-income eligible students will NOT be notified until after school has started. Non-income eligible students are placed on a waiting list once all paperwork is complete. Once all qualifying students are placed, non-income eligible students will receive notice informing them of their status after the beginning of school, per the VPK grant guidelines.
