Happy Valentines Day Westgate Families!

We have ONE WEEK LEFT of our Kids Heart Challenge this year! The deadline for donations and/or taking the challenge is this Friday, February 18! We can’t wait to celebrate with our students all that we accomplished this year as a community!

So far our school has raised $15,415 for the American Heart Association, SURPASSING our goal- AMAZING! We also have had 9 families complete Finn’s Mission so far! Thank you for your support!

There is still time to jump on board and join our school's heart hero team!

You won’t want to miss out on learning 6 ways to stay healthy from our heart heroes (and maybe even earn some to take home with you!)

Are you ready to Pack the Piggies? The Arlington Heights Council of PTA’s (AHC-PTA) funds $11k worth of scholarships each year. The scholarships are divided into $10k for graduating D214 seniors and $1k given to D25 elementary students. This March, the AHC-PTA will be initiating our first ever “Pack the Piggies” fun-raiser across the district to help raise funds for the scholarships.

The contest begins March 14th and goes thru March 17th. Each school will have a goal of raising $1k. If the goal is attained by a school, they win its predetermined prize chosen by the principal. Some schools will silly string or slime a staff member, while another school’s prize will be to have the principals work from the rooftop! Please help your students reach their goal by having them bring in coins, cash, or checks to pack their school’s piggy! Let’s have some fun for a great cause!
