Cadets looking to build school culture

At West Point Public Schools’ Board of Education meeting on Monday, High School Principal Andy Lewis and Activities Director Jake Hohenthaner announced a “Consistency-Coherence-Belonging” code that will work towards building their Cadet culture. Each letter for Cadets has a word attached to it, along with a defined meaning, which was collaborated by students and teachers. The core values for Cadets is: C-Courageous, A-Accountable, D-Determined, E-Excellent, T-Trustworthy, S-Successful. Lewis said this Cadet code will be officially unveiled after Christmas. In other matters: • The Board approved the purchase of a 2026 Ford Transit AWD, nine-passenger van. The purchase will be made from the District’s Depreciation Fund and will not exceed $68,000. • A formal request from senior Andrea Gonzalez for early graduation was granted. Gonzalez plans to pursue a career as a medical assistant.
