Elementary School Fundraisers
The Parent Teacher Organizations (PTO) at both elementary schools held their annual Laps for Lindsey and Westwood Walk fundraisers, which are their largest fundraisers of the year. Thanks to the fundraising efforts of students and generous donors, the PTO exceeded their goals. The money raised by each PTO will be used throughout the school year to support the students and staff in their buildings. Thank you to everyone who participated.
NEO Leadership Summit
West Geauga Interact Club board members and National Honor Society officers attended the Northeast Ohio Youth Summit. The workshop is designed to help schools implement service projects that will impact the school and community in a positive way.
The Interact board members presented for 40 minutes in a breakout session called “How to Put the FUN in FUNdraising” that detailed how to run a successful fundraiser within a school and have fun doing so. They also attended other breakout sessions on topics including Student Leadership, Human Trafficking Awareness and the Greater Cleveland Food Bank Student Ambassador Program.
1st-Grade Phonics Lesson
Mrs. Javorek’s first-grade classroom was transformed into a surgical hospital. Student doctors were called upon to “save” their patients by finding the missing vowels. Each student had a patient chart with five different patients who needed surgery. Mrs. Javorek is happy to report that all patients survived and were discharged from the hospital. Students had much fun while practicing their phonics skills.
