Departments

A commitment to excellence is shared by staff, students, parents, and our community. Our staff is committed and works diligently to meet the following Board of Education goals:

  • Increase student achievement for all children
  • Refine our district strategic plan
  • Expand communication with our community members
  • Establish a respectful learning community

The many challenges associated with funding education have increasingly demanded our attention. Staffing and program changes were necessary to reduce budget expenditures as revenues have declined and costs increased.

West Ottawa continues to be the "heart of our community." Our district has a visionary Board of Education, dedicated teachers and support staff, and talented students. Our students' accomplishments are a source of pride for our entire community.

Please visit our department pages for specific information.
