Budget Survey

3/21/2023 1:00 pm

Each year the PTA reviews the budget process to ensure we’re spending donations/fundraising in accordance with donor wishes and Wilchester needs. This is accomplished through our PTA budget survey that guides us in creating the 23-24 budget. It is extremely important that we hear your thoughts. As the PTA is a 503(c) non-profit organization we must allocate 100% of funds. Did you know our budget supports:

  • $140,000 towards Wilchester staff salaries (instructional specialists, interventionists, library assistant . . .not covered by the district)
  • $66,000 towards classroom support (instructional/supplemental resources, classroom consumables)
  • $8,600 towards technology and facility improvements
  • $44,000 towards enrichment programs and field trips
  • $33,000 for committees/enrichment such as dads and donuts, library events, field trip shirts, teacher appreciation

Please consider taking 5 minutes to share you thoughts in 4 open-ended questions. Giving your thoughts REALLY MAKES A DIFFERENCE FOR OUR CHILDREN. Every idea/response will be reviewed for feasibility. You are welcome to respond anonymously as well. 

 

Take the Budget Survey!

SPECIAL THANKS

Thank You Green Png, Transparent Png

It's hard to believe that tomorrow we will turn the calendar to March!  And what a busy March we have planned here at WCE!  But before we jump into the next month, it's time to thank those PTA volunteers who helped make February such a success!

Thank you to the STEMFest team for putting on another fantastic event!  This event continues to be a school favorite!  A huge thanks to the STEMFest Committee: D'Lisia Bergeron, Kelly Porter, Randi Koenig, Katharine Larson.  And a big thank you to those who helped out before the event and the night of: Jessica Candler, Jen Ferguson, Ashley Flowers, Maggie Gardiner, Yeliz Gunes, Kimberly Lair, Valerie McIntosh, Gabriela Mladenova, Kellie Patrick, Lauren Shea, Brandi Stanton, Lindsay Yurchak.


A huge thanks to the members of the Nominating Committee who worked tirelessly throughout February to nominate the 2023-24 PTA Executive Board.  The slate will be announced and voted on at the Friday meeting - don't miss it!  Thank you to Chair of the Nominating Committee Melissa Treadway and committee members Ashley Kerr, Rebekah James, Courtney Prochaska, Kami Buri, Amy Bartholomew.


A big Texan thank you for another successful Go Texan Day to Linley Dieringer and Holly Stephenson for decking out the school in its rodeo best!
