School Community

The Weilenmann School of Discovery community is made up of students and families from diverse areas including Heber, Kamas, Park City, and Salt Lake City, who have chosen WSD for its safe and challenging learning environment. Strong relationships between students, peers, and teachers are essential, but fostering connections between parents, both within and outside of school, is equally vital. The Family Association aims to strengthen our community by facilitating these connections and bringing all members together.

Every family attending Weilenmann School of Discovery is a welcome member of the Family Association. We actively seek meaningful ways for you to get involved in our community. From the Annual Gala every fall to the Spring Arts Festival in May, and events throughout the year, there is no shortage of fun opportunities to get to know families and to support the endeavors of your students. We look forward to seeing you throughout the year!

Family Association Purpose

The WSD Family Association is a friendly and inviting community of volunteers. We aim to connect parents, caregivers, and families, through planning play dates, hangouts, and events that bring the community together. Our goal is to build connections based on trust and friendship that lead to school engagement and inspire active family involvement.

Family Association Responsibilities

The Family Association will be responsible for the following:

• Family community building (off-campus)
• Teacher appreciation events
• Volunteer support for fundraising efforts

The Family Association Steering Committee is a team of dedicated volunteers who foster the connection between families, staff, and our school. The Family Association differs from a parent union or a PTA in that we function under the school, not as an outside affiliate, nor do we influence school operations or academics. Additionally, we do not serve as liaisons for concerns about the school. Our focus is on building a supportive and joyful community through meaningful interactions and shared experiences. If you are interested in joining or would like to know more, please connect with the Family Association Steering Committee via email at gro.c1742973213pdsw@1742973213noita1742973213icoss1742973213aylim1742973213af1742973213.

It also helps us acknowledge the great work and the many hours donated to WSD by families and friends. Whether you are working with us on campus or volunteering from home, be sure to log your hours in ParentSquare.
