DWE Family Giving Tree Hurricane Harvey directly impacted the homes of over 100 of our students and staff members. As our DWE families work tirelessly through the restoration process, we understand that many will be in need of on-going support including essential items such as groceries, clothing, and household necessities. Since we are unable to manage these items on campus, we would like to provide relief through gift cards to our families in need. If your family is in a position to do so, please consider donating a gift card. Suggestions, based on needs as they are conveyed, will be located on our Giving Tree in the front foyer. Gift cards should be returned to the front office, with the coordinating tag, and will be distributed to our families in need. If your family is in need of assistance, please reach out to your child’s homeroom teacher or to our counselor, Holly Mays. Thank you for your generosity. Together, we will recover!
