As the school year draws to a close, now is the perfect time to think about
memorializing your child's years at Westland. Or perhaps you'd like to
recognize a special teacher or staff member. Or just celebrate your family's
connection to Westland.
Whatever you'd like to say, you can now say it forever by purchasing a
Westland brick. For just $50, you get 3 lines of text on a brick that will
be laid in a new walkway in front of the school.
This new PTA campaign not only beautifies the front of the school (no more
dirt/mud paths!), but also raises much needed funds to underwrite technology
purchases. Westland will have at least two new portable classrooms next year
and Mr. Vogelman wants to ensure that those classrooms have the same
technology capabilities (ie Promethean Boards), as do our permanent
classrooms. These boards cost approximately $7,000
Our goal is to sell at least 250 bricks by June 1. With over 1,000 students,
we're hoping that will be a cake walk - or a brick walk, as the case may be!
We'd really rather sell 500 so we can buy two new Promethean Boards.
