The Tiger Experience
Think back to the great memories that you have of your own school days. Your memories may consist of attending or participating in athletics, band, vocal, performing arts, camps or other available opportunities. Our students within the WDMCS are lucky enough to have all of these opportunities available today which collectively create the Tiger Experience. The Tiger Experience builds memories that today's students will cherish for a lifetime. Because of the Student Support program, students are given the opportunity to enjoy the Tiger Experience regardless of means.

Support our Teachers
The Teacher Grant Program supports innovation in the classroom and provides supplemental funds to teachers for projects/supplies to enhance student learning. Applications for the program are taken annually in the spring. Submission deadline is the second Friday in May. All applications are reviewed by our Teacher Grant Committee with award recommendations sent to the WDMCS Foundation Board for a vote.
We are all grateful for our amazing teachers and donating to the Teacher Grant Program is a great way to thank them for their dedication.
