Funfest
Each year our Parent Teacher Association sponsors a school carnival,
FunFest. The purpose of Funfest is to provide us the opportunity to
invite the West7th community into our environment to meet and learn
about our special needs students and families.
Proceeds from
Funfest are used to provide a variety of life experiences that would
otherwise be unavailable to many of the students. Examples may include
adapted equipment, supplies, and field trips which are valuable
components in our attempt to integrate our students into the community.
Over half of our students are in wheelchairs, making the cost of transportation exceptionally high.
