Parent Information

Learning is easier when you have an excellent teacher. That's why most of our educators have achieved an advanced degree in their field. Our faculty are passionate about the subjects they teach and bring this enthusiasm into their lessons. 

 Our mission is to equip elementary students with the academic and social skills needed to become self-motivated, competent, life-long learners. We strive to help students become productive citizens who respect themselves, others, community, diversity, and the environment.

 Our academic program includes inquiry-based learning, Spanish language development, outdoor and physical education, music, and art.

  WECS is a free public K-5 Education Charter School with After School Programs accepting kindergarten applications.  We are centrally located across the street from Rec. Grove Park, the Willits Public Library, and the Mendocino County Museum.  

All classes are currently full; we welcome new student applications to keep on file at any time. Kindergarten applications should be submitted by April 30 to be included in the lottery. Please see the "Admissions" tab for more information.
