Weekly Update - April 7

Welcome back! I hope you had a good Spring Break and you are ready and rested to ROCK quarter 4! 
 

Mark your calendar for these important events: 

Friday, April 19: All Day: Civil War Reenactment Training and Outfitting  at Westgate

Wednesday, April 24: 6-8:30 pm: Civil War Reenactment Fundraising Dinner at Westgate. Open to everyone!

Thursday, April 25: All Day: Civil War Reenactment at Lake Village Park 

Each year the 8-grade social studies class participates in a Civil War reenactment. Because this is an authentic reenactment with a full day of training, uniforms, replica weapons, a script and a movie-set feel, the cost is $45 per student.  Westgate pays 1/4 of this amount, which leaves a cost of $33.75 per student that we still need to cover.  To do this, we hold a student-created Civil War era fundraiser with a guest speaker, buffet, songs, a museum and silent auction.  Students are required to be at all of these events. It is important that you mark your calendar for Wednesday, April 24, from 6-8:30 pm. Tell your friends and family and bring as many people to this fundraiser as possible.
