🌟 Staff Spotlight: Wendy Taylor 🌟
This week, we are excited to shine the spotlight on Wendy Taylor! 🎉
Wendy is in her first year with us. She grew up in Westville, is married, and has three adult children and eight wonderful grandchildren who bring her immense joy. Although she is a homebody at heart, she treasures every moment spent with family and friends—especially her grandkids! ❤️
When asked what advice she would give to herself on her first day, Wendy shared:
🗣️ “You’re going to get attached, and that’s okay because every student needs love.”
And just between us, she enjoys working with her sister too... but let’s keep that a secret! 😉
We are so grateful to have Wendy as part of our team! 💙👏

🎉 Staff Spotlight of the Week: Arlene Harp! 🎉
We're excited to spotlight Mrs. Arlene Harp, one of our amazing second-grade teachers, as she celebrates her 32nd year of teaching this grade!
What’s your favorite part of the job?
"The curiosity, eagerness, and sense of wonder on the students' faces as they fully engage in a project or activity."
If you could give advice to your younger self when you first started, what would it be?
"If you stay in education long enough, you will get the privilege to teach the children of former students."
Arlene and her husband, both proud Westville graduates, have been married for 46 years. They raised three children, all of whom graduated from Westville, and are blessed with 10 grandchildren with a great-grandchild on the way! Arlene is especially proud to have taught six of her grandchildren in her classroom.
As Arlene wraps up a rewarding career in education, we’re honored to celebrate her during her retirement year. Thank you, Mrs. Harp, for your years of dedication, passion, and the lasting impact you’ve made on generations of students. You will be missed dearly! 💛📚
