PARENTS' COUNCIL PROGRAMS
Lisa and Richard Fitts (P'11) have agreed to take on the responsibility of Co-Presidents of the Parents' Council. They have been vital members of the Council for the past three years, assisting on many events at the school. This year's council will again be comprised of three committees. Each oversees certain functions within the school to complement all that the faculty and administration do daily.
Student Life/Student Affairs Committee - Chaired by Pauline Zimmerman (P '12)
This group of volunteers will strive to make the most of your daughter's non-academic time at Westover. This committee organizes and supports special events, such as the Glee Concert, Drama Productions and Dance Recitals. There are other great programs such as Adopt-a-Corridor/Lounge and the International Dinners. Parents have as much fun participating in this committee as the students it benefits.
Parent Outreach Committee -
Co-Chaired by Ruth Zeiss (P'09, '11) and Sotonye Otunba-Payne (P '11)
This committee works to ease the transition for new parents to the Westover community, while keeping all parents informed and connected to the activities and events that affect their daughters. The Parent-to-Parent connection is an important program that links "new" and "old" parents as a support system. If you are a "new" parent and would like to be connected, please contact Director of Admissions, Laura Volovski.
Monthly Parent Meetings -
Chaired by Vanessa Clayton (P '11); Secretary: Peni Igo-Clark (P'12)
Meetings are held for parents in Red Hall six times a year and provide an opportunity for a social and informational gathering. The dates for the 2010-2011 meetings are: Thursdays: October 28, November 11, January13, February 17, March 26 and April 20. Meeting time is 7:00 p.m. Agendas and reminders will be sent out monthly. Please join us!
Annual Fund Committee -
Chaired by Stephanie Davies (P'11) Chair Committee Members Stuart Carlisle (P'12, P'13) & Kim Zdon (P'10, P'13)
One of the great contributors to the Annual Fund in years past has been the Parents group. Of course we hope to be able to show our continued support there.
