Community Liaison / Encargada de Enlaces co
About Me...
My Name is Norma Sánchez; I joined Westmont High School in 2015. Since my arrival, my goal has been to increase participation from our underrepresented families. I work closely with Guidance Counselors, Assistant Principals, principals, and teachers to ensure that our English Learners are getting the support they need. Below are ways in which I can assist you and your student during your academic career at Westmont. In addition, I work alongside our Teacher On Special Assignments to monitor EL student progress, reclassifications, ELPAC testing, and provide resources to our families
Welcome to the 2021-2022 School Year!
As the bilingual Community Liaison at Westmont High School, I am looking to get to know our wonderful families. My role is to support our Westmont families. Throughout the school year, I will share useful resources, provide parent workshops, help families understand our school system, and help parents support their child's education. I very much look forward to working with our Westmont students, parents, faculty, and community resources. Together we can help our students have a successful school year. Please contact me if you have any questions.
