Through the school year, OBW has been very active in meeting specific needs in the Wildwood School System. Sometimes we forget to properly share pictures of our activities for others to see. But we would like to post a few miscellaneous pictures of some of … Continue reading A Few Misc. Pictures of OBW At Work
On May 4, OBW was priviledged to provide breakfast for the Wildwood Elementary School Fifth Grade Honors breakfast. Along with breakfast, fifth grade honor students were given their awards and certificates by Principal Temple. Here are a few pictures of the event.
Each year the school puts out a supply list for each grade level and asks the parents to supply these items for the upcoming school year. Often, parents cannot afford the supplies, and even when they can, the school is always in short supply. So we are reaching out to our community for help. Attached is the 2017 WWES Supply list for each grade. If you are able to help supply some of these needs, the school can take your donations around the third week in August.
It’s up to us as a community to come together to support our schools as they educate our children. Thanks for your prayers, support, and donations!
It’s that time of year again. School is about to start back. The students at the Wildwood Schools will be returning to the campuses next week. The teachers have already returned.
Sometimes it’s easy to forget that schools are part of our larger community. Through their dedication and hard work, teachers and their support staff provide an immeasurable service to our community. Teachers put in their best effort to teach their students all that they can. While these educators play such an important role in the lives of our children, it is our responsibility, as a community, to thank the teachers for their efforts by showing our gratitude and support.
Several years ago, as a way to say “Thank you” to our local educators and their support staff who go the extra mile every day for our children, OBW decided to provide a barbecue lunch before the students’ first day in the classroom. It was a huge success, and so we have done it every year since then. Now that most of the teachers are aware of our luncheon, participation has grown to include almost all of them.
Today was the 2016 Teacher’s appreciation luncheon. It was truly a fun and uplifting experience. With the donations of many businesses and churches, and with the help of many volunteers, the luncheon offered delicious food (barbecued pork, cole slaw, & beans), good fellowship, some free items to all who attended, and many gift cards and gift baskets through our free raffle. It was wonderful to see the happy faces of our teachers as they begin this new school year!

2015 was a busy year for OBW. Here is a quick rundown of our projects and activities in 2015. Our projects basically began at the beginning of the school year, in August.
We plan to continue our work in 2016. If you would like to partner with us or donate, please use the contact form on the Home Page.
To remind them that we appreciate everything they do for our children and our community, OBW gave a gift to every single teacher, secretary, custodian, and administrator at all 3 Wildwood Campuses. Each person received a small box of candy and a hand-written Christmas card wishing them a Merry Christmas.
The folks that work at our schools are underpaid and under-appreciated. Please lift them up in prayer on a daily basis. Also, they are always looking for good volunteers at the schools. If you would like to volunteer, drop by one of the schools for a Volunteer Background Screening Form. Give that form and a copy of your Driver’s License to the secretary and he/she will get the ball rolling to get you approved as a school volunteer.
