A new social emotional space was created at Bethesda Elementary from a May 2022 WEF grant. The private, safe and calming environment along with various regulation materials have enabled students to meet their sensory needs and then return to the classroom. #WEFGrantsWorked
Culinary classes at Waukesha West High School have learned about growing and harvesting fresh produce, how to plan seasonal menus based on in-season produce and more. This May 2022 grant has enriched the curriculum and cultivated a new experience for students. #WEFGrantsWorked
One of the district wide programs that has implemented a May 2022 grant is SDW Environmental Education. With this project, students have been able to take their learning outside by using outdoor classroom spaces or outdoor exploration tools and kits. #WEFGrantsWorked
WEF is glad to see that a May 2022 grant has provided support for Prairie Elementary through the creation of a small library. Students are able to choose a book that will help them resolve and repair the conflict connected to the problem they are facing. #WEFGrantsWorked

Happy Thanksgiving from the Waukesha Education Foundation!
Bilingual programming has been well-received by staff and students that visit the Horwitz-Deremer Planetarium. Thanks to a WEF grant awarded in May 2022, they were able to add another show in Spanish to their offerings. #WEFGrantsWorked
Our next May 2022 grant feature is from @Waukesha South High School. Gretchen and Alyssa’s project changed the way that AVID students are using class time and space and learning from each other. #WEFGrantsWorked
WOW, what an AWESOME group of student & adult volunteers. Shout out to the South SALT (Student Athlete Leadership Team) who got our pie sort done in 35 minutes & then stayed to help load cars, organize special delivery groups and clean up! WOW, so grateful for great students!
Our May 2022 grant recipients have submitted their follow up reports and over the next several weeks we will be sharing the outcomes of their projects. First up is Devante from @Hawthorne! His grant expanded the physical education tumbling and gymnastics unit. #WEFGrantsWorked
Last night, the WEF was proud to present a symbolic check for $50,000 to the School District of Waukesha and School Board President Dr. Kelly Piacsek, representing the classroom grant awards announced in May of 2023, for implementation during the 23/24 school year. These dollars are coming alive in classrooms across the SDW and we can't wait to see them take flight!
