National School Psychology Week, which runs from Nov. 11 to Nov. 15, celebrates the contributions of school psychologists and the role they play in schools and communities. It is also an annual opportunity to recognize school psychologists' work to help children thrive in school, at home and in life. 

Cayla Andrick, a second-grade at Huber Ridge Elementary; Sydney Salisbury, a second-grade teacher at Pointview Elementary and RaNae Edwards, an intervention specialist at the special education preschool program at the Early Learning Center have been named Westerville Education Foundation’s November Teachers of the Month.

Starting Monday, schools throughout the district are rolling out various activities and events to build community and foster a sense of belonging in honor of Start with Hello Week.

Created by the Sandy Hook Promise organization, Start with Hello Week runs Sept. 16-20 and is focused on helping students build empathy, healthy relationships and social awareness through social-emotional lessons and activities.

The newest members at several Westerville City Schools elementaries have spent the past week starting to build relationships in their school communities.

Preschool and kindergarten students eligible for school transportation can ride the bus during the Gentle Start dates for the 2024-25 school year. Those are Aug. 14-16 for kindergarteners and Aug. 14 and 15 for preschool students.
