West Point Public Schools

88 Years Ago in Cadet History… Take a look at West Point High’s Class of 1937 and some of the clubs & activities students were involved in during the 1936-1937 school year, including Future Farmers of America (FFA), Quill and Scroll (Journalism), National Forensic League (NFL), Latin Club, and the Pepsters! #throwbackthursday #cadetpride⚔️

A big THANK YOU to F&M Bank for donating yard signs to our Class of 2025 soon-to-be graduates! 🎓 #cadetpride⚔️

Our 3rd Grade students played Jenga to review for their MAP math test! 🟥🟦🟨 Students had to pick a colored card and answer the question correctly. If correct, they were able to move a block with that same color! Each color of card was programmed with a different math skill such as fractions, multiplication, time, etc. Their hard work will definitely pay off! #cadetpride⚔️
