Teacher Appreciation Week

Please join us in helping to provide a week's worth of special meals to show your appreciation for the WCMS faculty and staff! During Teacher Appreciation Week, the faculty and staff are treated to delicious food delivered by WCMS student families and friends.
Since many of our faculty are only here on certain days, we offer these meals every day of the week. If you're short on time, bringing in a prepared dish from the market--or even donating a supermarket gift card or cash contribution--is great too! Sign up below to volunteer to provide a food or a contribution.
