We NEED you - Apply HERE

The PTA is an organization of volunteer parents and teachers whose goal is to support the education of WBAIS students by fostering relationships between the school, parents, and teachers all for the benefit of the students who support the education of WBAIS students. All members of the WBAIS community are encouraged to join with the PTA and participate in its events, clubs, and meetings.

What We Do

• Plan and organize several themed holiday programs as well as a teacher appreciation week each year all geared towards uniting the WBAIS school community
  

• Raise funds to be applied towards the benefit of the school community, enhancing school initiatives and the education of the students
  

• Support and advocate for children and families and meet throughout the year with the head of school and other staff
  

• Improve communication between parents, teachers, and staff, and actively support parent involvement in the education of their children
