2022 Westview Fundraising Luncheon

The 2022 Westview Fundraising Luncheon was a joyous and successful event as families and friends of The Westview School gathered on Wednesday, March 30, 2022, at River Oaks Country Club to support our school. The event raised over $150,000 for The Westview School. From the thoughtful reflections of our Class of 2022 to the heartfelt speech from our parent speaker, Elizabeth Gretter, our event illustrated the tremendous impact a Westview education makes in a child's life.
It takes a village, and any successful event requires much coordination and teamwork. Our luncheon's success relied heavily on the generous underwriting provided by the Burch and Christopherson families.
Much appreciation goes to our Westview staff, who worked behind the scenes to coordinate and plan this year's luncheon. Roger Browning, our Director of Development, and Sarah Chauvin, our Director of Communications, worked tirelessly on every detail.
A memorable and lovely addition to this year's event was the participation of our Middle School Commencement Class of 2022. This part of our program was coordinated and supported by Westview teachers Kori Spurgers, Jared Dawkins, and Nelson Armstrong.
In the weeks leading up to the event, this team prepared our students to both speak and perform in front of our 250 luncheon guests. The table decorations gave a personal touch to the decor as our art teachers, Kaylee Bond and Angela Loftin, facilitated the painting of our beautiful vase centerpieces.
Yet, we know that it is because of our dear Westview friends and families who hosted a table, invited guests, and attended our luncheon in support that we can boast of our success. We feel fortunate to have been able to gather together this year. Our calendar is already marked for the next event, Wednesday, February 15, 2023. We hope that you save the date and join us in support of our great school.
