2026-27 Breakfast & Lunch Orders 
Has your student tried the new food options yet? Our new food vendor for the 2026-27 school year is Revolution Foods and students are enjoying the new selections! In compliance with the Universal Meals Program, WESD provides meals (breakfast & lunch) to all students in the district who request for the school year. 

For the meal ordering process, parents can voluntarily provide meal preference input (2 breakfast choices and 4 lunch choices) in a weekly survey and the District will place orders based on the feedback. All meals will be distributed on a first-come, first-serve basis and individual orders will not be provided. Please note: If a meal is requested by a student, the District is required to provide one meal per student, if available.

No Dogs on Campus
Please do not bring your dogs to campus at ANYTIME — including after-school sports teams/clubs using the WES field, weekends and summer break. This is a school policy and large signs are posted at the entrances to campus. We have had a significant problem with dog waste on our fields and campus. It is also important to provide a clean and safe environment for our students, especially those with allergies and animal fears. Please use our beautiful Woodside trails to walk your dogs. More information HERE. 

No E-Bikes & E-Scooters On Campus
This is a reminder that e-bikes, e-scooters or any electric vehicles are NOT allowed on the school campus AT ANY TIME. Have questions? We encourage families to attend the  WES Admin Talks on Tuesday, Sept. 2 evening at 6pm in the school library regarding E-bike education and safety. Info HERE.

Sequoia Healthcare District — Healthy Schools Initiative Grants
Each year, the Sequoia Healthcare District’s Healthy School Initiative helps to support school-based health programs for over 28,000 students across 8 school districts in San Mateo County, ours included. The program funds over 60 staff, including wellness coordinators, school nurses, and counselors. Additionally, the initiative trains school staff to support students' emotional health. The Sequoia Healthcare District ensures taxpayers’ dollars are specifically directed to improve the healthcare of the community through coordinated, school-based programs.

Last year, the district graciously donated 3 AEDs (automated external defibrillators) to be installed near our playing fields on campus and available if needed.  Also, read SEQHD's Healthy Schools Initiative (HSI) newsletter to learn how they support our school. Sequoia Healthcare District
