How can we help?
We ask for our community’s support in two meaningful ways:
Financial Support
Tuition dollars alone cannot cover the cost of providing a well-balanced, challenging and diverse education to the students of Westerly, so fundraising is key to the fiscal health and long-term stability of the School. The Development Office, therefore, plans, supports and promotes school-wide fundraising efforts through the coordination of the Annual Auction, the Annual Fund, Grants, Major Gifts, Capital Campaigns and other special programs.
Active Participation
In addition to relying on donations Westerly relies on generous volunteers.   We invite parents to participate in the School life to better understand and support their child’s learning experiences -- perhaps by being involved in the classroom, attending School events, and volunteering at events.  Volunteering allows opportunities to get to know other parents, to stay involved with your student’s educational activities, and to support Westerly at the same time.  We also encourage grandparents, alumni, and alumni parents to participate and attend school events such as the music performances, athletic events and Graduation.  
We invite you to join our esteemed list of supporters, who enable us to offer extraordinary and successful education opportunities.  We hope that you will become involved in a meaningful way and in doing so encourage others to do the same. 

If you have questions, please contact Christine Downie, Director of Development, at (562) 981-3151 or cdownie@westerlyschool.org.
