CALLING ALL PTA LEADERS 2025-26!

It's that time of the year, where we start to think of the PTA leaders for next year. All of the great PTA events and programs that make us excited about Westwood View are the result of parent volunteers. There are big jobs and small jobs, and they are all equally important. We are always looking for parents to take on a role and we hope you will join us, in whatever capacity, for the 2025-26 school year. If you are interested in being a part of the PTA at Westwood View please email ptawwv@gmail.com.
