Parent Association News
The WMES Parent Association (PA) welcomes all returning and new families. All parents or guardians of WMES students are welcome in the PA and there are a variety of ways you can be involved. Throughout the school year, the primary goals of the PA are to organize community-building activities and raise funds for school infrastructure and learning resources. In addition, it is our hope that we can act as a communication vehicle between parent, teachers, school administration and the WMES Board. The PA meets on a monthly basis between September and June. For information on the PA-Bedson campus contact Lynn Riddell at lriddell@shaw.ca and for the PA-Agassiz campus contact: Carla Ens at carla.ens@gmail.comPlease click any documents below for more information on specific fundraising and spirit events.
