Thank you to all the families who contributed their time and/or a dish for the December 20th staff holiday luncheon. The Foundation purchased the tamales, and families contributed drinks, side dishes, and desserts. Approximately 35 of the 50+ staff members enjoyed the lunch and send their thanks to the West Campus community. 

We wish you all happy holidays and a fabulous start to the new year!

Teachers’ DonorsChoose Requests

Thank you to those West Campus community members who have contributed to teachers’ specific DonorsChoose projects. While teachers have multiple means to request for funding from the school or the Foundation, some have started DonorsChoose campaigns to fund specific classroom needs – from dissection materials to books to lab chairs. Check out the West Campus campaigns here and support our teachers.
