My family received the Harvard-Westlake School’s 2009-10 Annual Report. We don’t have any connection to the school. We got it because we contributed to a memorial fund for our friends, Scott and Jody Siegler’s amazing daughter, Julia Siegler, who was tragically struck by a car and killed while trying to catch the bus this past February. The cover photo, above, shows Harvard-Westlake students joining hands in honor of Julia and another student who died.
Here are a few highlights from the Annual Report:
- Heritage Circle- $50,000 and up. Number of donors: 49
- Community Circle- Under $1,500. Number of donors: 596
