Westside Consolidated School District

With the potential of strong storms tonight, the Westside Middle School and Westside High School shelters will be open.

NOTICE OF DESTRUCTION OF SPECIAL EDUCATION RECORDS

The Westside Consolidated School District, in compliance with the U.S. Department of Education General Administrative Regulations (EDGAR) 34CFR. 76.734 will destroy the special education records of students who exited the Special Education program in 2020 and earlier on May 28, 2026. Students served in special education programs, or parents and guardians of those students, can review and request the records before they are destroyed.

The records are maintained for six years after a student has graduated, dropped or moved from the district. State and federal guidelines state these records should be destroyed six years after a student no longer receives these services or if the records are no longer needed to provide services.

Special education records are available for pickup at the Westside High School, special education department, Monday through Friday from 8:00 am until 3:00 pm.

❤️🤍A Little Piece of Westside in Downtown Jonesboro ❤️🤍
One of our own is sharing the beauty of Westside with the city of Jonesboro in a truly special way.

Hi friends, I’m Cady Honeycutt 👋🏼

Every weekday morning, I drive a school bus for Westside. Because I have an extended route, I typically begin my drive in the dark. This also means I get to see the sunrise every morning. Part of my route takes us down dirt roads that are sandwiched between fields and fields. And even more fields.

Honestly, the view never gets old. I love seeing the world wake up slowly - the colorful morning rays peeking over the tree tops, the crops gently swaying in the wind, the birds gracefully flittering by. It’s something I look forward to every single morning.

Occasionally, The Foundation of Arts in Jonesboro opens submissions to beautify traffic control boxes throughout the area. I have always been intrigued by the different designs chosen and wanted to be a part of it. This year, when the FOA announced they were accepting submissions, I knew exactly what I wanted to send in.

I painted this awe-inspiring scene in hopes of being selected. After a month or so, I was contacted by the FOA notifying me that I was selected to paint the traffic control box on Matthews and Church Street in downtown Jonesboro. My jaw dropped with equal amounts of shock and excitement.

I am incredibly thankful for the opportunity to share a glimpse of the hard work and dedication our Westside community provides to NEA.

Attention parents and guardians: Bus 70 (Bull) will be approximately 15 minutes late today. Thank you for your patience.
