Coming Soon to West Elementary... When your child gets sick during the school day, you want to get them well right away. But it’s not always easy to go to the doctor during school or work hours. With Atrium Health Levine Children’s Community-Based Virtual Care, your child can get medical care for minor conditions without leaving school, camp or other activities.

Elementary transportation is an important part of the school experience. In years past, we have had parents sign up at orientation. To keep everyone from gathering around a table, we will collect this information electronically this year. Please give us a call if you need assistance filling out this form. Thank you for your help.
