Worlds of Westpark

Some of you may be wondering why we haven't planned our traditional Worlds of Westpark event for the fall.  We took a look at the popular event and decided we wanted to make it even better.  We are so excited about this opportunity to celebrate the many heritages we have at Westpark and also celebrate the end of our school year with a carnival-type celebration!  Worlds of Westpark (WoW) will be held on Friday, June 13, 2014 from 4-8pm.

This year’s event will serve to highlight the vast array of cultures represented within our school’s student population, as well as celebrate the conclusion of a successful academic year.

The WoW event will host several family-friendly features, including:

·      Cultural booths with parent volunteers showcasing artifacts, traditions, and activities specific to the countries of their ancestry.

·      Student artwork from representing countries they’ve studied throughout the year.

·      Carnival-type amusements for the students, their families, and the community.

·      Food trucks/vendors who will sell international cuisine for dinner and dessert.

·      Raffle prizes and Silent Auction baskets from local vendors.

Please stay tuned as we will be unveiling additional details about the 2014 Worlds of Westpark.
