All you have to do is scan any and all receipts from stores!! It can be receipts from grocery stores, drug stores, and retail stores. All you have to do is download the app and pick Wilderness Elementary School. Then start scanning receipts!!! Thank you for your support!!
PTA Membership
Thank you to those of you who have already joined our PTA! We have over 270 members so far in this 18-19 school year! If you have not joined yet, please consider it as it is a very easy way you can help our school. Joining does not obligate you to volunteer in anyway; however, we do love our volunteers and there are many different areas in which you can help. An annual membership is $6 for an individual or $10 for 2 adults and either cover as many children as you have at WES.
This year, the PTA is not mailing out membership cards. After joining, you can go to www.pta.org and log in using the email address you provided when signing up. Online, you can print membership cards and see the many benefits to joining. If you do not have online access, please let us know and we will provide a card.
