Watauga Education Foundation

The only way WEF is able to provide these classroom grants and professional development scholarships is because of our INCREDIBLE donors and community partners. The generosity of Graystone Eye, Monkee's of Blowing Rock, Western Carolina Eye Associates, the Watauga Arts Council, Spangler Restoration, and Boonerang Music & Arts Festival shows their commitment and support of our students and educators.

Go support these amazing organizations as a thank you for their love of our schools.
