Westfield first-graders commemorate the first Thanksgiving
“The First Thanksgiving” play presented annually by
the first grade classes has been a Westfield School tradition for more than 25
years. The students in Rita Parks and Janna Gray’s class, dressed as Pilgrims
and Indians, celebrate the first Thanksgiving and give thanks to the Lord
through prayer and the recitation of poems, songs, and scripture including
Psalm 100. Highlights of the production include singing “Amazing Grace,”
accompanied by Westfield junior Baylee Culverhouse playing the violin, and “God
Bless the USA” (written by Lee Greenwood). After the production, students and
their families and guests enjoy refreshments.
