The West Island School Parent Teachers Association (WIS PTA) warmly welcomes all new and existing families to the vibrant WIS community for the upcoming 2023-2024 academic year.
As volunteer parents on the Committee, we are motivated to create opportunities for all WIS parents to feel more connected and engaged within the diverse community of our school.
We are pleased to announce that the WIS PTA annual membership fee for the 2023-2024 academic year was reduced from $350 to $200 per family.
Vision:
Our PTA envisions a welcoming and supportive (inclusive) school community that fosters lifelong learning and personal growth for all students, with parents as valued and active members.
Mission:
Our PTA is committed to support academic excellence, the well-being and success of all students, advocating for the needs of all families, and enhancing the quality of the learning environment through fundraising and volunteer efforts. We believe that parent involvement is essential to creating a strong school community, and we work to foster a culture of collaboration and partnership between parents, teachers, and administrators.
Primary Goals:
- Enhance the learning experience of our students and create a positive and nurturing environment.
- Build a strong sense of community through a range of social events for parents and children.
- Organize diverse fundraising events ranging from discussions on education and school life to the WIS PTA Bazaar.
Your membership fee and funds raised through these events are used for providing additional resources for learning for our children such as equipment for various school activities. The funds also contribute towards sponsoring initiatives and supporting school events.
