Fiske WEF Walk- Monday, March 20th from 9:15-10:20

For over 30 years, the Wellesley Education Foundation has supported the Wellesley Public Schools by awarding grants to educators that further innovation and excellence. In the past ten years, grants totaling more than $2.3 million have sponsored programs and initiatives that inspire the love of learning for our students in the Wellesley Public Schools. These grants are funded by donors and volunteers. 

At  Fiske we have benefitted from the generosity of WEF grants in a variety of ways. On Monday, March 20th at 9:15-10:20 the Fiske Elementary School will be hosting aWEF Walk for  parents to visit some of our classrooms and directly see the incredible impact of Wellesley Education Foundation grants. We still have spaces for those who would like to join us for the walk.  Please email Rachel McGreogr ar mcgregorr@wellesleyps.org if you would like to participate in this event.
