February 10-14: Kindness Week 

Kindness Week is a long-standing tradition at Westgate. While the students focus their time and energy on showing appreciation to members of the community, we parents and guardians focus our appreciation for our wonderful teachers! We have several fun things planned and WE NEED YOUR HELP! 
  • Monday: We will be stocking the staff bathrooms with all kinds of goodies – room spray, nice hand soap, the good toilet paper – all the pampering stuff to start their week fresh!  
  • Tuesday: We are making the staff breakfast! Pancakes, sausage, fruit, pastries – what a way to start the day!
  • Wednesday: Parents Take Over Carline! We know carline can be tough, so here’s your chance to give those teachers a break! Sign up to help with either AM or PM carline. (Must attend required training Friday, Feb 7th after PM carline to volunteer.)
  • Thursday: $1 flowers! A student favorite, we will have $1 flowers available for purchase during morning carline, while supplies last. Cash/check – gift a flower to your favorite teacher, para, admin, school nurse, counselor, front desk manager, or facility dog!
  • Friday: It’s a half day, so join us after drop-off and treat yourself! We will have free donuts (while supplies last) and coffee available for purchase from our very own, Westgate family-owned coffee truck – Rebosando Coffee! Look for us on the east side of the building, near the truck loading area. 
 
Please consider volunteering your time or dropping off some fancy bathroom supplies. There are many ways to get involved! Check out our SIGNUP GENIUS to sign up! 
 
No time or desire to shop but still want to help out? Donate money via the lockbox in the front vestibule or via the payment portal Westgate Events | Westgate Community School 

ALL donations should be turned into the front office no later than Feb 7th
