Welcome to the WesterPTA website.

Wildcat Family!

Wow!  Is the first semester really already gone?  It seems as if I recently wrote my last article commenting on Thanksgiving and preparing for the upcoming holiday season.  Now we have a full semester behind us and preparations are in full swing for our Mardi Gras Social on February 26th!!  Help is always welcome.  Contact Anissa Lara at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

How about those awesome black hoodies our Wildcats are sporting these days?! 
Kudos to Tara Wetli (and Tammy  Decker) for such a great new look!  PTA still has a limited supply available in Adult sizes Small – Extra Large.  Contact Tara at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .

As we begin to gather our fall decorations and make preparations for the holiday weeks ahead, it’s unmistakable that we’ve settled into the routine of another school year.  During this time of giving thanks, I’d like to extend PTA’s gratitude and appreciation to all the Wildcat parents, teachers and staff for making Wester Middle School the great place of learning that it is.  I would also like to share that due to PTA membership and donations the PTA was able to purchase new, much-needed, tables for the cafeteria.  Thank you for your continued support!

 Even in the little amount of time since school began, PTA has been able to accomplish a number of things.

  • Freaky Fridays continue to be enjoyed by the kids as they look forward to refueling with snacks at the end of each week.
  • Our first Bookfair recently concluded and looks to be a success.
  • The annual Reflections contest generated more entries than in years past and talented Wester students were clearly evident.
  • Teacher Appreciation events have been fantastic and given us the opportunity to thank our awesome teachers and staff that dedicate their careers to serving our kids.
  • The addition of Spirit/Dining Nights Out.  Who doesn’t need an excuse to forego cooking in order to raise money for our school?  These events are a great way to support Wester PTA while dining out with family and friends in our community.  Look for additional information and dates in this newsletter and on our website.
  • Dad’s Club implemented Dad’s at the Door.  Please take a moment to thank them for their weekly commitment and dedication.

Certainly, there is much more to look forward to such as the highly anticipated social for all students, spirit nights out, Wester Wildcat hoodies, and additional teacher appreciation events.  Read on to learn more from the various PTA Chairmen!

I wish you a very happy Thanksgiving and wonderful holiday season!  As always, your ideas, comments and suggestions are always appreciated so please do not hesitate to contact me.

Sincerely,
