Dear Westhope Families, I want to inform you about a current situation regarding our math instruction. Following the recent resignation of our math teacher, we have been actively working to find a qualified replacement. Unfortunately, due to the ongoing shortage of certified math instructors—especially in our rural area—this process has proven to be especially challenging. In the meantime, we have placed a consistent and reliable substitute teacher in the classroom to provide supervision and structure. To ensure continued learning, we are utilizing Khan Academy, a trusted online resource that offers standards-aligned instruction and practice in mathematics. Our staff is closely monitoring student progress and providing additional support where needed. We understand this is not the ideal setup, but please know we are doing everything we can to maintain learning momentum and secure a qualified math teacher as soon as possible. We appreciate your understanding and continued support during this time. If you have questions or would like to discuss your child’s progress, please feel free to reach out. Sincerely, Christy Lee Principal Westhope Public School
