" Welcome to West!" - We will be having our "Welcome to West Night" for all current Waukesha West families and prospective families on Monday, December 11th, 2017 from 6:00 - 8:00 P.M. The night will allow all in attendance to choose from a variety of break out sessions for acquiring information prior to scheduling for next year. Please check out our flyer below for an overview and click on this link for more in depth information about the sessions that are available. Look forward to seeing you there!
"Welcome to West" Session Descriptions - The session descriptions are linked above and also can be seen below:
"Christmas Clearing Council" - The past several weeks the Class of 2021 and Ignition Mentors collected $3453.00 for Christmas Clearing Council. West was able to adopt 16 families with 40 children between them. The students involved with fund raising then called each family for gathering wish lists of the children. Sixteen West students went shopping for each of the families. These students are currently double checking that the children are receiving the gifts on their lists, are beginning to wrap the gifts, and will soon deliver the gifts to the families! If there are funds left over, families will get a movie night that will include a movie, popcorn, hot chocolate, and marshmallows. Per usual students have worked hard to give back locally and have once again set an example of unselfishness in the community!
"Purpose Corner" - Please enjoy this video as I discuss the continuation of our inquiry group work and bringing back "Pineapple Charts!"

"Annual Food Drive" -The West Annual Food Drive starts TODAY, Monday, December 4!! Please donate your non perishable goods to donate to the Waukesha Food Pantry by bringing them to the main atrium area at West and dropping them into the clearly labeled bins. West staff has been instrumental in offering incentives for their classes to donate big....thank you staff and keep it up. Annually this is the Waukesha Food Pantry’s largest donation! We typically collect more food at West than all other high schools in Waukesha County combined! Lets make this year the biggest yet!
