OUR STORY - Shout Outs!
Wilson County Schools Weekly Highlights - June 22-26, 2020
Generous Donations to WCS Operation Backpack
WCS is incredibly grateful to Chick-fil-A of Wilson, Pierce Group Benefits, Modern Woodmen Youth Service Club and Schwartz & Shaw, PLLC for their support of WCS Operation Backpack! Our list of donors is growing, and we are incredibly thankful! Since 2012, WCS has been able to provide backpacks to our students in need because of the generosity of the community. We know that this is a hard time to be asking for donations, so we truly appreciate any amount of funds or backpacks that are given. Thousands of our students live in poverty and do not have the school supplies needed to get off to a successful start. If you are interested in donating money or supplies for Operation Backpack, see information below for more details. Staff in our 26 schools will connect with families to make sure students who are most in need of a backpack receive one prior to the first day of school.
