Dr. John Rosemond at Westfield November 7 & 9...
Tickets Now Available!
|
|
Westfield is pleased to offer
two parenting sessions
, "Parenting with Love & Leadership" geared to parents of young children up to age 11 and "Parenting the Teenager" geared to parents of children ages 12 to 18!
Dr. Rosemond is one of America’s most well-known and respected parenting experts. His nationally-syndicated newspaper column, one of the longest-running lifestyle columns in the industry (since 1976), is carried in more than 200 newspapers nationwide. He is a family psychologist, the author of 18 best-selling books on parenting and family issues, and a very busy public speaker. His resume states that his "real qualifications" are that he’s been married to Willie for 45 years, is the father of two 40-something year old children, and is grandfather to seven ranging in age from six to 18.
To help us plan for and ensure adequate seating, all attendees must purchase a ticket to attend the event. Tickets are on sale for $5 each (cash only) in the Administration building to current Westfield families only. Ticket sales will be open to the public beginning Monday, October 30th. Because the sessions are geared to parents and not children, Westfield will provide free childcare to current Westfield families only. If you should need childcare, we ask that you make a reservation for your child(ren) at the time you purchase a ticket.

One-Act Play Community Performance:
November 3 and 4
|
|
Don't miss this year's performance of Westfield's competition one-act show
#Viral
by Maria McConville on Friday and Saturday, November 3rd and 4th in the Recital Hall. Show times are 7:30 p.m. with the house opening at 7:00 p.m. Tickets are $5 for adults and non-Westfield students.
The play addresses the serious and timely issue of school bullying, both physical and internet driven. A group of young women play a prank on a fellow student, but the prank goes horribly wrong. The motivations and consequences of such an act are brought clearly to light. Although the play contains no physical violence or strong language, it is not recommended for small children.
The play stars veteran Westfield performers LeeAnna Allen, Laura Liz Bryan, Gracie Johnson, Sophie McEntee, and Lucy Swearingen, plus freshman Lauren Black in the lead roles. Additional characters are played by Marla Barragan, Charles Cartwright, Luke Hartley, Madelaine Kinnebrew, Eva Catherine Parnell, Carley Schwelling, Nate Sizemore, and Emily West. The play is directed by Mrs. Kathy Stubbs, Upper School English and Drama teacher. The students will compete at GISA region on November 8th at Augusta Preparatory School. #westfieldoneact #westfieldfinearts
