Here are several updates from the PTSA and several groups around WHS:

The following positions are available: Mulch Chair/Co-Chair (late winter-spring), Directory Chair (early in school year), Bulldog BBQ Co-Chair (summer—NEEDED asap—learn how it’s done from an experienced co-chair), Legislative Representative (yearlong). Please consider donating a little of your time to helping make Westfield a success! Rising 9th grade parents are encouraged and invited to volunteer – what a great way to get to know the school.
