They were judged on creativity, structure stability, and teamwork. They all loved being able to eat the the sweets afterward!<br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Other students had fun participating in a &ldquo;Secret Santa&rdquo; gift exchange. They brought hand wrapped items under $5 and played a game taking turns &ldquo;stealing&rdquo; a gift from another student, or opening their present and choosing to keep it. Everyone was impressed with the unique gifts that were brought and had fun playing with their toys and sharing the candy.&nbsp;</span><br /><br /></div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center"> <a> <img src="https://www.westendxp.org/uploads/3/2/1/6/32168767/published/img-0118.jpg?1548448527" alt="Picture" style="width:518;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-thin " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center"> <a> <img src="https://www.westendxp.org/uploads/3/2/1/6/32168767/published/secret-santa-2018.jpg?1548448798" alt="Picture" style="width:auto;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-border-width:0 " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center"> <a> <img src="https://www.westendxp.org/uploads/3/2/1/6/32168767/published/snowball-toss.jpg?1548448849" alt="Picture" style="width:434;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[WEXP T-shirt Contest! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[https://www.westendxp.org/blog/wexp-t-shirt-contest]]></link><comments><![CDATA[https://www.westendxp.org/blog/wexp-t-shirt-contest#comments]]></comments><pubDate>Wed, 14 Jan 2015 03:06:17 GMT</pubDate><category><![CDATA[Art]]></category><category><![CDATA[Fundraising]]></category><category><![CDATA[Student initiative]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.westendxp.org/blog/wexp-t-shirt-contest</guid><description><![CDATA[&nbsp; &nbsp; As a fundraiser for our program, we&rsquo;ve asked our students to design an original t-shirt logo they can wear at West End Middle School.

We will have a graphic designer place the finishing touches and will post a photo as soon as the t-shirts are made.&nbsp;<span style="">We&rsquo;re excited to see the finished product!</span><br /><span style=""></span><br /><span style=""></span></div>]]></content:encoded></item></channel></rss>
