ONLINE DIRECTORY

The Westport Schools directory is ready! Access to the directory is available upon registering and providing payment to each school where you have a child registered. Each Westport school PTA is a separate, non-profit organization that provides financial support and parent volunteers for a wide range of programs, services and social events that enrich our children's educational experience. By registering on AtoZ Connect you are joining the school’s PTA as a supporting member. Membership does not require volunteering but does fund the enrichment programs at your school provided by the PTA. We cannot do this without the support of all parents, teachers and staff within each school community.

It was book fair week at SES! Students loved shopping for new books to add to their home libraries. Our kindergarten and first-grade students had an extra special time shopping with their older-grade buddies, who helped them add up the costs of their books and trinkets. These older-grade buddies had excellent recommendations for books that they knew their younger buddies would love!
