Strengthening our Inclusive Community
Thank You, Special Education Team!
Last Friday, all grade levels worked through a series of three sessions focused on raising student awareness of fine motor, vision, and hearing challenges people overcome on a daily basis. The hands-on experience engaged students in different ways and was very well-received. Westtown-Thornbury is fortunate to have such a wonderful team of teachers willing to design events such as this one. Thank you, Mrs. Gilliano, Ms. Morasco, Mr. Walter, and Mrs. Baggaley for making it happen!
Some Student Feedback
We Danced!
Congratulations, Ms. Donals & the 4th Grade Chorus!
The hours and hours of practice paid-off! Toes were tapping, people were singing, and some were dancing. The dress rehearsal and evening performance were outstanding with numerous students taking on the challenge of a small solo. We can't wait to see what is next.
