Big congratulations and heartfelt thanks to two amazing fourth grade educators!

After 29 years at West Salem Elementary, Mrs. Edwards is retiring at the end of the year—her impact on our students and families is immeasurable.

And we’re also saying goodbye to Mr. Watty as he moves to a school closer to home. He will be greatly missed by the entire Cardinal community.

Over the last few weeks of school, our WSES community has had the opportunity to celebrate both of these educators, and our WSES PTA presented them with gift baskets as a small token of appreciation.

We wish them both the very best ahead!♥️

Little learners, big wonder! Kindergarten Cardinals have been exploring butterflies this Spring—so fun to watch their questions and discoveries!
