Brooke Ray, Miss Greater Jonesboro, visited with our 6th grade students today.
Westside Middle School was excited to welcome incoming 5th graders. Students got to listen to the band perform, learn about some of the rules and procedures of the school, went on a tour guided by student council, and got practice with the locks.
Westside Middle School held its second semester art show and project night. Families were able to view art projects completed during the second semester. Families could also participate in a book swap, a parent vs. student quiz bowl competition, and EAST students showcased their projects and work at their EAST Night Out!

Westside School Board Meeting Recap

Westside families,
At the May 11, 2026 Board meeting, the Board approved adjusting the last day of school, Thursday, May 21, 2026, to a half day for students.
Earlier this semester, our district was closed from January 26 through February 2 due to ice-covered roads. As part of our make-up plan, February 5, which was originally scheduled as a half day for students followed by PLC work for teachers, was changed to a regular instructional day. Because of that adjustment, we are able to dismiss early on the last day of school while still meeting the required instructional hours under our alternate calendar.
School will dismiss at 12:05 p.m. on Thursday, May 21. With this adjustment, the district will still have 1,068.5 instructional hours for the 2025-2026 school year.
We hope you enjoy your summer, and we cannot wait to see everyone back when school starts again on August 13.
