Important Announcement: This event, scheduled for tonight, March 12th, has been postponed to a date TBD due to unforeseen circumstances
When families are invested in their student’s education, the amazing things can happen. However, finding creative ways and opportunities to get involved with your student’s education can be challenging at times. And what exactly does being “involved” in your student(s) education mean?
The WCS Family Engagement Team would like to answer that question for you and talk about a number of ways you can be actively involved in your student(s) education. We hope you can join us for one, or all, of the upcoming WCS Parent/Guardian Workshops!
