My Project

The choral students at Westfield High School are proud to continue a legacy of excellence through their yearly performance seasons. They consistently receive superior ratings at annual national competitions and love to perform for the community throughout the year. Our school loves to showcase the talents of our choir members in our auditorium. However, our risers need updating in order to create a safe performance environment. The risers were new to the school in 1974 and although they were built to last, it is time to begin replacing them for the safety of our students.

Our choral risers are used for all four performance seasons throughout the school year in addition to moving them to alternate locations for graduation and our Big Spring Sing, an all-city grades 3-12 choral performance.

Many students use these risers throughout the year. Our first priority must be the safety of our students.
