Veteran's Day - I would like to thank all staff members, parents, community members, and alumni who are Veterans of our armed forces for your service to our country!
“The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated this ground, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here.”
- President Abraham Lincoln, 1863, in the Gettysburg Address.

Want to help? Monetary donations can be dropped off at Waukesha West High School’s Main office Mon-Fri 7:35-3:05 now until Nov. 15th. Wrapping paper and tape also needed!
Every dollar puts us closer to sponsoring another child!

Waukesha West Interact Club - They had their annual rummage sale fundraiser this past Saturday and I will let Interact Club Advisor Mrs. Corrao sum it up best below...
What a day!! Thank you to all staff who donated or stopped in at the sale. We were busy all day and raised $1825.75!! That money will go to the Guest House and NAMI Homeless Outreach that works with veterans and those with mental health issues who are struggling with homelessness. Leftover items go to The Hope Center, a church in Racine that distributes clothing to struggling families, and St. Vincent De Paul here in Waukesha.
I am truly amazed at how students open their hearts to a cause and go out of their comfort zone to help. Without the donations, planning committees, pricing team, bake sale bakers, set up crew, rummage workers, pizza pick up, and clean up help, we never would have been so successful.
Sixty three members helped out at some point Friday or Saturday!! Alex Wittwer, Courtney Zanon, Emma Ernst, Erin Phelan, Kalyn Otzelberger, Gabby Proffit, and Jaron Frank, spent their Friday night AND entire Saturday working their tails off!! I am very lucky to be able to lead a club that truly does put "service above self".
