Westwood Update

PTO Walk-A-Thon

The PTO Walk-A-Thon is the biggest fundraiser of the year, and every cent raised goes back to our students, staff and Westwood community through field trips, assemblies, community events, classroom and staff support and so much more. If each student raises $35 each, we will have met our goal of $15,000. This year's theme is "The Treasure Hunt."

Donations are open now and will remain open until Oct 3rd at 11PM.

You can easily donate online, and the PTO happily accepts checks and cash. Please see the website below:

Thank you for your continued support of Westwood and its students and staff!
