West Forsyth PTSA

Hey Juniors!
Would you like to receive a scholarship from the PTSA during YOUR Senior year? Make sure you've been a PTSA member for 2 years, have a 2.0 GPA and will be attending an accredited tradeschool, community college or university. (Student memberships are $10. Not too late to join! https://westforsythnc.givebacks.com/store?limit=21&live=true )

Last but not least Matthew Lee was awarded one of our scholarships and he will attend NC State in the fall.

Up next, Daniel Bryant won one of our scholarships and he will be attending NC State this fall!

Our next PTSA scholarship winner is Camden Trull and he will be attending Wake Technical Community College this fall!

Our first PTSA scholarship winner is Asia Holabeck - she will be attending Johnson University (Knoxville, TN)

Remembering all of the men and women that have served our country.

Reminder that the WF PTSA volunteer dinner is Tuesday night 5/28. All volunteers should have received an invite already!

‼️ you still need to pick up your senior signs for your Titan graduate. If you ordered a sign this is the last call for pickup ‼️

We will have extended pick up hours this week to include:
Wednesday, May 8, 3:00-4:00pm
Friday, May 10, 8:00am-9:00am and 3:00-4:00pm.

You, your student, a sibling, a neighbor, a teammate, etc. can pick up the sign!

We will ask whoever picks it up to sign for it and indicate his or her relationship to the student. We will be sitting at a table in the front lobby of West right outside the front office (beside the check-in/check-out window).

Thank you! We look forward to seeing you!

It’s national pet month! While this has nothing to do with school, who doesn’t love an opportunity to show their pets off! Feel free to post a photo of your beloved pets in the comments below!

Happy Easter!

History of Easter: Easter, also called Pascha (Aramaic, Greek, Latin) or Resurrection Sunday, is a Christian festival and cultural holiday commemorating the resurrection of Jesus from the dead, described in the New Testament as having occurred on the third day of his burial following his crucifixion by the Romans at Calvary c. 30 AD. It is the culmination of the Passion of Jesus Christ, preceded by Lent (or Great Lent), a 40-day period of fasting, prayer, and penance.
