That there is a School Community Network?

The WDMCS is dedicated to involving our parents in what we do. Made up of parents, teachers and administrators from across the district, this group provides an opportunity for a face-to-face exchange of ideas and information. Its members also help us share information about district with the community.

Meetings of the School Community Network are typically the third Tuesday of the month starting at 9:15 a.m. at the Learning Resource Center, 3550 Mills Civic Parkway, West Des Moines, Iowa. 

If you are interested in the topics discussed at these meetings please see links to minutes from SCN meetings posted on our meetings/agenda page.

That the district has new snack guidelines?

The West Des Moines School District has created a list of approved snack and grocery store items that can be brought to school for parties and other special occasions. If your student has a birthday or holiday parties are coming up, please check the approved list. If you purchase something that is not on the list you will NOT be allowed to bring to your student's classroom. Please click here for classroom snack items and click here for approved grocery store snacks. Please be advised, home-made snacks are never allowed at school. Thank you for your understanding.

Clive has a new visitor check-in system called Raptor.

Visitors will need to check in at the main office upon arriving and present a valid state-issued ID.

• The office staff will scan the ID through the Raptor system, which only pulls the visitor's name, date of birth, and photo for comparison with a national database of registered sex offenders.

• If no match is found, the system will print a visitor's sticker.

• The self-expiring sticker will identify the person as an approved visitor and include the date and time and a picture of the visitor.

• The visitor must wear the sticker during their visit and it must be visible.

• Visitors will need to check out at the main office prior to leaving.

Many Des Moines area companies will match a donation made to Clive

Ask your company/employer if they would be willing to match a donation you make to Clive Learning Academy. Last year, we had matches from companies such as Wellmark and Wells Fargo. In most cases, donations are tax write-offs as we are a non profit group. We accept donations all year around. Need a form? Click the button to email us.

If you don't sign a photo release, your child will not appear in any school photos.

In order for a child to appear online or in print photos, the parent/guardian must sign a release form. Email the office and ask about "Photo Release Forms" if you have further questions.
