Westwood Wildcat Ways

As a Westwood Wildcat, I want to do my best and learn to be a good citizen of our school.

I can do this by remembering:
To always say yes mam, yes sir, no mam and no sir when speaking with an adult.
To say please, thank you and excuse me when appropriate.
To make eye contact with those I'm speaking to.
To answer with words and not shrugs or head nods.
To help others when I notice they need help.
To be kind and respectful to others.
To walk on the right side of the hallway.
To be quiet in the hallway, but if talking is necessary - to whisper or use a quiet voice.
To not talk when someone else is talking. To wait for my turn to talk or to say excuse me.
To pick up things that do not belong on the floor (paper, trash, etc...)
