Our Accelerated Reader (AR) billboard is located in the foyer of the main building.  AR is a motivational reading program designed to encourage our youth to read.  Students choose books on their grade levels to read and then take tests based on the main idea of the books.  Students progress to various point levels and earn rewards along the way.  The AR billboard displays the various point levels along with pictures of the students.  At the end of last school year (2010-11) we gave away 7 bikes with the help of Continental Carbon.  These top awards were given to the top 7 AR students at Westview.  This year we will do something similar.  In the meantime, checkout the billboard to see if your child is on the board and please encourage them to read at home!
