VHEW welcomes new students

On Friday, Aug. 7, students new to Vestavia Hills Elementary West converged on Wald Park to meet new friends before the start of the 2015-16 school year. Several of the school’s PTO volunteers welcomed the families in attendance. Parents and students socialized while waiting to purchase treats from the ice cream truck. Kindergartners and first-time West students are invited to join this sweet tradition each year.
