Team
Mom – Mrs. Goethals has asked that each classroom have a “Team Mom” who is a
previous Webber parent. Our Team Mom will be Maureen Bucci. You may contact her
if you have any information regarding Webber that you are unsure of (i.e.
lunch, attendance, lost and found, parking, etc) instead of contacting me. Her
email address is buccim4@aol.com and her cell phone number
is 248-229-5010.
