West Fork School District

Every year, Warhawk Time groups will come together to tackle community service tasks like planting trees or flowers around the surrounding Westfork towns. This year, Mr. Laugen and Mr. Westhoff's Warhawk Time decided to come together to plant flowers at the football field. Students from these two groups have been walking around Sheffield, seeking donations to help fund our project. We decided that we should also reach out to the Facebook viewers. Donations can be brought to the Sheffield office Checks can be made out to the Westfork school with the memo "flowers." Thank you so much for your consideration and never stop be-leafing!!
