Community Partner Spotlight
International Family & Wellness Night 🌍
There were over 500 attendees at our Welcome to Our World: International Family & Wellness Night. We celebrated with food while listening to our very own Mr. Barrington spin tunes from countries all over the world! There were 11 community partners that shared information about health and wellness. The African American Health Program provided blood pressure screenings for adults and Pets on Wheels provided dog therapy for all community members. We ended International Family & Wellness Night with a parade! Thank you to the International Night planning committee, PTA and the Wheaton Woods families that cooked & shared artifacts from many countries, it was a great community event!
Career Day 👮🏽♀️
We had 26 presenters during Career Day! Wildcat students learned from a marketing specialist, karate instructor, graphic designer, flan cake bakery owner, biology professor, environmental construction superintendent, realtor, lawyer, commander, studio drummer, video game marketing coordinator, police officer, principal, chef, fire and rescue captain, lighting control specialist, director of Reptile Wonders, secret service officer, Ethiopian diplomat, professor, military and athletic referee, painter, recreation specialist, dentist, community organizer, and a professional musician. We are thankful for our community partners who were also part of the presenters! Our students were inspired for the future!
Community Baby Shower 🤰🏽
Thanks to our community partner Costco for donating $100 for our 2nd Community Baby Shower! We purchased lemonade, cookies, and onesies! Each expecting mother or mother with a baby under 12 months received a Wheaton Woods Community School diaper backpack filled with board books, baby wipes, diapers, and onesies. We signed up our youngest learners for the Imagination Library where they will receive a free book each month until the age of 5. This was also a great opportunity to inform our community about the free pregnancy classes offered by our community partner, Coaching Salud Holistica. We also held a diaper distribution for the community thanks to our partnership with the Maryland Diaper Bank & So What Else?.
