It's Homecoming week in Westphalia, and there are lots of things going on. Here are some things that are happening this week at WISD:

Dress up days are as follows: Monday - Camo Day, Tuesday - Western Day, Wednesday - Nerd Day, & Thursday - Spirit Day. There will be a door decorating contest for the grades with prizes going to the class with the most spirit.
