WolfPACK

WolfPACK

The WolfPACK (Positive Action in the Community through Kindness) is made up of parent volunteers that assist and work with the Wilder Student Council and Teachers by supporting their efforts in community service events. We believe that when we work together as team a lot of great things can happen.

Please keep an eye on our weekly PTSA newsletter updates for the many wonderful programs the Wilder WolfPACK is planning to support this year. Let us know if you can help in any way. If you would like to become involved with the WolfPACK team or have any questions, please contact Cathy Chen or Jeannie Tsognyi at wilderwolfpack@hotmail.com.

Thank you so much for your support of the WolfPACK and the Wilder Student Council in our efforts to connect with our community, set positive examples for our students, and help to support our entire community through kindness.

Support Our Community! ONLINE Holiday Hunger Drive - THANK YOU!!

We wanted to give a huge, warm THANK YOU to our amazing Wilder Community for helping us to exceed our goal of $1,040! Because of you, the Pantry Packs program can provide food for so many in our community that are in need. We are so very proud to be a part of this generous community!

Although Wilder has reached our goal, there are still many schools and families in need in our surrounding communities. If you are interested in donating, please use the link below to help support families in our entire Lake Washingotn school district.

Donations will be accepted through Sunday, December 17th. A donation of $25 will provide a hungry student with weekend food for a month.  It is a small amount with a big impact.
