WEF’s STARS recipients honored
One Hundred and twenty- two Wakefield Public Schools staff members were recognized by the Wakefield Educational Foundation’s (WEF) STARS program in December.
The unique STARS (Staff and Teachers Are Really Special) program allows donors to acknowledge those who make significant contributions to their child’s education.
Each honoree received a personalized card, printed on white linen stock, for each gift made in their honor.
Donors contribute not only to staff and teacher morale, but also directly into the WEF grant program which underwrites the cost of special programs, equipment or services to enhance the learning experience for students at all grade levels in all of the Wakefield Public Schools.
To support the grant process, WEF receives generous funding from key local business partners, private donors, and a series of annual fundraisers including: WEF’s Wakefield Public Schools Calendar showcasing student art; the S.T.A.R.S. program recognizing exemplary WPS staff; the Online Auction and the Adult Spelling Bee. WEF has awarded over $720,000 across the Wakefield Public Schools since 1989. Learn more by following WEF on Twitter or Facebook, or go to WEF01880.org.
