Lights on Afterschool...Potluck!!!!

EducationWorks at WWHS participated in the national initiative Lights on Afterschool to bring awareness to the school, community, teachers, and parents about the importance of afterschool programs.

Students at WWHS worked together with their parents and friends to bring in food for the potluck. Students also worked on a video documentary about how different individuals in the community and school felt about afterschool programs. The video will be posted soon!!

Some pictures from the event.......

Chaliyah Valentine

I was born and raised in Camden. I attended Molina Elementary School, Pyne Point Middle School, and Creative Arts High School. I attended Rowan University in Glassboro, NJ as a sociology major and graduated in December 2010.

Physical fitness has always been a hobby growing up. I use to take part in Tae-bo, via VHS. LOL.I am currently working on my group fitness instructor certification so that I can extend my love for fitness to others. Today, I can say that I want to pursue a career in physical fitness/ nutrition and helping to create obesity prevention programs.

Hi everyone, my name is Chante Hines. I'm a program assistant for EducationWorks program at Woodrow Wilson. I love kids and hope that I can affect a great number of young adults this year. I was born and raised in Camden, NJ. I graduated from Woodrow Wilson High School so it is a great pleasure to return and help others achieve their goals, and see them onto the next level. I look forward to meeting everyone and hope all have a good year!

Mayor's Fire Victim Relief Event

Mayor Dana Redd and Channel 6 Action News were at the Children's Garden on Thursday, Sept 22,2011 to witness our wonderful students from Woodrow Wilson performing for the homeowners who lost their properties from the fires in Camden earlier this year.

Students Ahniyah Upshaw and Daisey Smith performed poetry, while students Rosheen Stephans, Kenny King, and Melissa DeJesus did an exciting hip hop dance number. 

EducationWorks at WWHS rocks!!
