Our preschool bunny, Clara, joined the fun with a special write-in vote of her own!
The results are in! 339 votes for Goldfish, 180 votes for pretzels, and one vote for carrots! Goldfish is the winner!! Our students will enjoy Goldfish crackers as a reward!
A big thank-you to Student Council, WES Field of Dreams, and everyone who participated in making this a great event for our families!
To keep the excitement going, our principals faced off in an energetic Principal Showdown! Six students who have consistently demonstrated positive behavior joined in the fun—racing against the clock to toss as many beach balls as possible into the “hoop!”
We also celebrated our spirit stick winners for the quarter: Mrs. Schrader’s Kindergarten class, Mrs. Woods’ 2nd-grade class, and Mrs. Moses’ 5th-grade class. Congratulations!
1st place: Nick Davey
2nd place: Velvet O’Day
3rd place: Candy Webb

Coming Soon! Westfall Elementary's Field of Dreams Committee is hosting a silent auction for theme-decorated raffle baskets! Many years ago, Field of Dreams started a silent auction of Christmas trees in loving memory of a beloved Westfall alum, Tiffany Elster, who loved to celebrate Christmas early.
We are continuing with this silent auction, but this year, we are introducing raffle baskets! Different teams from WES have put together various themed raffle baskets for bidding. A portion of the proceeds from this fundraiser will be used to fund a scholarship for a Westfall High School student pursuing a career in nursing.
The Westfall community also recently lost another alum, Barb Steward. Both Barb and Tiffany were nurses, so this scholarship will help continue their legacy of helping others through nursing. If you would like to donate to the scholarship but not bid on a raffle basket, donations can be dropped off at the elementary school office and will be accepted in the form of cash or a check written to WEF-FOD.
How will the auction work?
Pictures of the baskets will be posted on the WES Facebook page by Wednesday, October 22, or sooner. Bidding can begin there, but will continue in person during Trunk or Treat. You do not have to be present to win, but to ensure a win, you will want to be present when the auction ends at 7:00 PM. Payment will be due upon pickup of the basket (cash or checks made payable to WEF-FOD). If you win the bid on Facebook, someone will reach out to you within one to two days of the auction to arrange for pickup of your basket at the Westfall Elementary front office.
Students will be released at the following times:
Middle/High School: 12:30 PM
Elementary Car Riders: 1:15 PM, Bus Riders Depart at 1:25 PM
Thank you to all the families who joined us for our Preschool Family Event! Parents had the opportunity to step into our classrooms and explore learning activities alongside their children. It was a wonderful day full of hands-on learning!
