It takes a village...thank you for your continued support

Mission

Our mission is to support programs and events that enhance educational opportunity at the school and to foster ties between the school and the broader community.

How we do it

Our budget is funded by an appropriation from the Town, donations and fundraising. Fundraising is key to our success financially but it also helps to build a community relationship. Without volunteer help our events would not be possible.

join us!

All parents, guardians and community members are welcome to join and participate. This Organization of events takes “people” power and the more we have the better...let us know if you can attend meetings, or just show up.

Volunteers that can fill in here and there or donate baked goods are just as important. Join our Facebook group for volunteer opportunities or reach out to stay involved.

Our meeting dates/times for the 2023-2024 school year will be announced soon!

We always welcome new members and ideas! If you have questions you can contact us via email at: et4string@yahoo.com or on Facebook at "Friends of WES" (NOTE: this social media page is not affiliated with or managed by OSSU or Woodbury Elementary)
