News from Wye School Parents Support Association
WSPSA is proud to announce that monies received from the Community Spirit Grant have been used in various ways for our school! In the fall, the staff presented WSPSA with a wish list. I am happy to say that we have been able to accommodate all of their wishes!
In February, Wye School hosted an artist in residence - Nancy Corrigan. She taught all classes the basics of drawing. This was a great learning tool for the teachers to build upon for their continued art lessons. A total of $3000 was gifted to the Learning Commons and $4000 was gifted to the music program. Both Mrs. Groff and Dr. Boyer are thrilled to have this bonus spending money available to enhance their respective programs. Replacement digital cameras were supplied to teachers that required them, as well as special art paper for all classes. And finally, the Division 2 classes will be attending a field trip to the Edmonton Art Gallery. At the Art Gallery, teachers will choose from one of three programs that will strengthen students visual literacy and visual thinking skills.
WSPSA would like to thank the Wye School community for their continued support!
Thanks!
Kelly Maxwell
President (WSPSA)
