I would like to take a moment to honor a very special person in Mr. Way’s class this year…**Kathy Ferguson, our “Room Mom!”** Kathy has gone above and beyond the role of room parent on a number of occasions this year. Her talent and creativity have helped make our special events more memorable and exciting for the kids. Her dedication to Westmeade and our class should not go unnoticed. So, Kathy, from the bottom of my heart, and on behalf of all parents in this class, “Thank you! This year would not have been the same without you!” || **Week of 05/12/14 : **
