PADRES CLUB
Join the Padres!
We are excited to announce the relaunch of the WUES Padres Club to our school community. Founded in 2018 by Mark Prescott, the Padres Club connects dads in the community both socially and through service. The Padres Club supports the WUES PTO and the WUES school community at large. We aim to set positive examples for students by being present throughout the school year and rolling up our sleeves to serve.
Padres is a great way to be directly involved in the enrichment of your child’s school experience and get to know other dads at WUES.
