In collaboration with Westover administration and teachers, we host and support many events throughout the year. Whether to gather and have fun as a school community or to support fundraising efforts, parents like you help us make our events fun and memorable for the kids. Please consider volunteering your time or sharing your resources.

Our Scholastic book fair is a great way for kids to see what's new and learn how to "shop" with their class. Parents can send money in a marked envelope but we highly encourage you to set up an eWallet (so they don't lose the cash). Links to come.

Each grade has a milk jug to drop pennies into during the week. Each penny is worth one point, whichever grade has the most points wins.
BUT... grades can sabotage each other and try to deduct points by dropping any silver coin into the bucket.
Quarter - Subtract 25 points
Dime - Subtract 10 points
Nickel - Subtract 5 points
The grade level that has the most points will win a movie and popcorn party!
All proceeds will benefit the Westover PTO.
