COMMUNITY GIVE BACK:
Food Pantry of Waukesha County 🍱🍏🍋🍇🍒
WTA volunteered to go one day a month during March, April and May to help with any projects. We went through PALLETS of products and used a Sharpie to cover the bar codes. This was super helpful to get the products donated to individuals quickly. The Pantry gets food donations from manufacturers and when items aren’t sold at stores, the bar codes must be covered. Great work crew!

WTA's own Nathan Meech, Michaela Faulk, Eli Franta and Ms Yahr are in the news! WTA participates every year in a community give back at Prairie Home Cemetery by placing flags on the graves of veterans the week before Memorial Day. Ms Blohm, a former WTA teacher, arranges this opportunity with the local VFW Post. We love volunteering and getting to see former classmates!

JOB SPOTLIGHT: School Grounds Coffee Shop ☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️
Our coffee shop is currently run by Joey Mc Dermott, Molly Mulhollon, Wesley Pollmann and David Salgado. Each group of students have learned to be independent coworkers who follow a daily task list. We work with our Baking Buddy group, who makes our bakery and grocery shops for us. We take inventory, make regular and flavored coffee, pink lemonade and sell our bakery and chips to go along with the drinks. Our jobs include greeting customers, selling products, loading/unloading our carts, keeping supplies stocked and keeping our kitchen sparkling clean. ✨If you like coffee and treats, you will love School Grounds!!

Baking Buddies with Ms Mary Ann Proffitt and Friendship Ministries was so much fun! We all teamed up with a volunteer and made a delicious batch of blueberry muffins from scratch. While they baked, we played Bingo for prizes. Then, we packed up our muffins to share later with our families and enjoyed some shopping time in downtown Waukesha. Thank you so much for hosting us!!
