Students at Westwood Elementary will have the chance to participate in a fun and exciting Walk-a-Thon during school hours on Friday, October 4th. Each student will be given 20 minutes to walk as many laps as they can on the playground, all while enjoying music and spending time with friends. The goal of this event is to raise $15,000 for the Westwood Elementary PTO, which will help fund various activities and programs throughout the year.
