THANK YOU to our wonderful Upper School PTO who went above and beyond to show their appreciation last week. They organized and provided a delicious dinner teachers enjoyed during Parent/Teacher conferences, ensuring we were well-fed for the evening. They also generously supplied our kitchen with new items to improve our daily experience!
Their thoughtfulness and generosity demonstrate the strong community support we are fortunate to have at West G. These acts of kindness not only make our work environment more comfortable but also remind us of the appreciation our community has for the work we do.
Thank you Upper School PTO!
