WEST MIDDLE SCHOOL enjoys visit from Khodr Farhat


On Thursday, October 15, West Middle School was honored to have Mr. Khodr Farhat visit many of its eighth-grade classes.  Mr. Farhat brought his motivational message to the students. 

Although blind since birth and an immigrant from Lebanon, Mr. Karhat has not let these obstacles prevent him from leading an exemplary life.  He spoke to the students about the importance of education and that we must rise above our circumstances.

Through his extensive volunteer work he has raised thousands of dollars to help those in need,  granting the wishes of over 90 sick children. To continue to be inspired by Mr. Farhat educators at West encourage all to listen to his radio program called, "Your Voice Does Matter," on CINA Radio102.3 FM every Wednesday, noon to 1 p.m.
