This summer, our basketball teams hosted a "skills and drills" camp for elementary students. Today, they received their t-shirts for participating. West Side Athletics would like to send a special thanks to Terrance Osborne and his company, "The Real Deal," for supporting the camp and school and donating all the t-shirts!

Students and community members are invited to gather at the flagpole to pray. This means that, all around the world in every time zone, for 24 hours, students will be praying for their school, friends, families, churches, and communities.
