PARENT HOURS

PARENT HOURS

The key to the success of WPCS-Eastside is the involvement of our great parents.  It is suggested that each family participate in a minimum of 30 hours each school year.  In addition to volunteering in the classrooms, library, and other places on campus, parents also assist in many other ways.  They may serve on our school site council, help the PTA, participate in various committees, chaperone fieldtrips and other events, organize and coach sporting activities, teach after school classes and in other ways to enrich the school experience of their students.

Parents can find out about ways to help the school by checking the school's website and reading the emails that are sent by the webmaster.
