Closed the door on 17 years of teaching! So grateful for all of the memories and relationships I’ve made along the way with students, parents, and colleagues. Excited for my new chapter, but will miss everyone @WestgateElem 🙏🏼❤️

We are also VERY excited to introduce our community to our new mascot, Westie! Watch Westie roam around Westgate in the video below. Be on the lookout at future school and @westgatepta events!🤩
