Box Tops For Education collection program
WCA PTA donates funds collected from participation in the Box Tops program directly back to the school. We earn 10 cents for every box top submitted. At the end of each year the class that collects the most Box Tops wins a party (ice cream, Popsicle, or the like). Start by downloading the new Box Top app from the Apple Store or Google Play, purchase Box Top products and scan your receipt (paper or digital) within 14 days of purchase. All earnings are then updated automatically online! You can find information about the program and a list of products here.
AmazonSmile 
You shop. Amazon gives. Amazon will make a donation to WCA when you sign up with smile.amazon.com and select West Creek Academy PTA as your charity. Every time you shop either through the app or on smile.amazon.com, Amazon will make a donation to the PTA. It’s that easy!
Fundraiser Events
WCA PTA’s main fundraiser events have usually been the Fun Run and the Fall Festival. Keep your eye on the What’s Happening page to learn more about these awesome events.
Book Fairs at West Creek
PTA sponsors one to two book fairs per year. Students and their families are encouraged to attend the book fair and select fun and interesting books to enrich the students’ curriculum. Teachers are given an opportunity to choose books for their classroom wish lists. Many families choose to donate books to the classrooms in their child’s name.
Spirit Wear at West Creek
West Creek has spirit! Our PTA Spirit Wear Coordinator puts together Spirit Wear collections for the whole family with ordering done twice a year. All students and staff (and parents!) can show their school spirit each Friday (our current School “Spirit Day”) by donning their Spirit Wear or wearing burgundy (our main school color). Go Wolves!
