My Project

WSE has some amazing students and teachers that love attending school to learn every day! We are a Title 1 school, which means that more than half of our student body receives free or reduced lunch due to income-based situations. To keep our school safe, we currently have 5 walkie talkies to handle any situations that may arise on campus. We are in need of 30 more to allow quick access for teachers and support staff to use in case a situation were to come about.

With your donation, WSE will receive 30 walkie talkies that will be utilized in the classroom for teachers to use to keep our students safe.
