Soles 4 Souls Kicks Off

Have any extra shoes that don’t fit anymore? Well, now’s the perfect time to donate through Soles 4 Souls, a shoes collection service running through Dec. 18. Any condition or size of shoes will be taken, and you can submit your shoes to the front office or the Library. Get your shoes and bring them in as soon as you can, because your old pair of shoes may be someone else’s first.

Simone Heim, News Editor
Hi, my name is Simone Heim. I work for the Westwood Horizon online news as the Head News Editor. This is my third year in Student Press, as well as my fourth year in the journalism program. I also participate in the Westwood theater program as an actor and occasionally with tech. Outside of school I work as an assistant coach at a parkour gym teaching fight choreography, and over the summer I’m a counselor at a few summer camps. Some of my pastimes include obsessively listening to musical soundtracks, telling my friends to ‘fight me’, crying over television shows, and drinking hot cocoa.
