Greetings Westgate Community Greetings Westgate Community, I would like to introduce myself. I am Jeff Pawelski, your new Integrated Services Social Worker. I am delighted to begin a new school year at Westgate Elementary, and look forward to meeting my future students and their families. As I make this transition to Westgate, I know that change can evoke both excitement and trepidation. It is my goal to support students and help them to become successful through team collaboration, parent involvement and individualized care. I received my Master of Social Work degree from the University of Illinois, Chicago, Jane Addams School of Social Work. I have spent the past ten years working at Children’s Memorial Hospital (now known as the Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago) in the Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Department. I grew up in Arlington Heights and have a strong connection to the community. My outside interests include activities related to the outdoors. I enjoy fishing, camping, gardening and traveling. Recently, I had the opportunity to travel to South Africa and Japan, and I learned about other cultures. I feel that sharing positive experiences is an excellent way to connect with students and educate them about setting their own goals in life. I look forward to meeting everyone at Westgate this coming school year. Enjoy the rest of your summer. Sincerely, Jeff Pawelski Integrated Services Social Worker, Westgate Elementary.
