Spring Gala
Each year, the Spring Gala brings the Westmark School community together for fun, friendship, and philanthropy! Powered by ticket sales, sponsorships, and a live and silent auction, the annual event primarily supports the School’s tuition assistance program so that more and more families can access the special education their children need.
At the Spring Gala, attendees also raise their paddles for one or more special projects or initiatives. Recent paddle raises have funded passenger vans for School-sponsored trips, laptops for Upper Schoolers, upgraded auditorium lighting, enhancements to the Westmark News Network broadcast studio, audio-visual equipment rentals for theater productions, a ceramic kiln space, new scoreboards, and more
