Attention All Waukesha West Female Students......
This message is for you specifically!! Recently we have met with GE who is a local company in Waukesha that operates on a global platform. They have created what is known as the GE Girls club which is geared towards females who have interest in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math. GE looks to mentor girls who are interested in possibly pursuing careers in these areas. I am excited to provide you information about this opportunity as we will look to form a club at Waukesha West. The first step in this process is to visit with GE directly and hear from the leaders of this program. For those who are serious about this we will be having a field trip to GE on Wednesday morning February 8th from approximately 8:00 - 11:00 A.M. For those interested in going you will need to register with Mrs. Portz in Student Services to secure your spot. In order to attend you will have to register by the end of the day on Friday, February 3rd. Let me know any questions you may have. Thank you.

Inauguration Article - This article was recently featured in the Waukesha Freeman about utilizing the inauguration of our new president as a learning opportunity. Thanks to Mr. Carl Millard for showcasing his activity!
My Beard is Back! - This is the last donating period and we have met our $4,000 goal but are in search of adding $900 more to eclipse $5,000. Once again.....I WILL match any donation amount up to $100 total starting now!!!!!! The January 23rd beard challenge date is here so get up to the main office and help fill my buckets! If you have a hole in your pocket to donate, come my way and double that donation starting today and going through January 27th! Also if not for me, please donate to your other favorite beards! On January 31st we will be having some guests at West to thank us for our community donation by offering barber services to shave some beards, and apparently heads in honor of student donations. Should be interesting, look for more details of the events that day. "Beard For Change Flyer" See below:
