Class Parent Leaders

Become a Class Parent Leader! A class parent leader is a leader that creates a bridge between parents, teachers, and the rest of the school community by representing your child's class parents group. They will help communicate, organize, engage, and participate in their child’s education by creating and fostering a safe and respectful learning environment. They will work towards one purpose and that is to provide the tools necessary for success for their child and their peers.

*New this year* we have a robust DWS WhatsApp Community chat to keep in touch with your fellow parents and community. Be ready to confirm your kiddo is a DWS student to join.

Hiking Club

Next hike: Saturday, February 22 @11am - 1pm approximately

Lord Stirling Park- Basking Ridge, NJ

This is a great mid-winter hike for beginners and littles as Lord Stirling Park trail system is relatively flat. It includes a series of boardwalks over marshy areas and wooded paths. It's part of the Great Swamp Nature Preserve and is a great place to see animal tracks, migrating birds and multiple eco-systems.

Sign-up HERE.

We're looking for additional hike leaders, with coordination and assistance from our Hiking Club leader. Email us if you'd like to jump in for the upcoming year! Thanks!

Here's some basic information if you are new to hiking:

The hikes will usually take approximately 2–3 hours (covering about 2 to 3 miles of terrain). Shorter trail options are usually available.
This includes time for little legs to walk slowly as needed, time for stopping to check out cool stuff - bugs, rocks, streams, boulders, and making a stop for lunch or snacks.
This is a great hike for littles and beginners, but bring a wearable backpack/carrier for kids 2yo and under.
Bring:
- Packed lunch, snacks, and water for everyone
- Shoes: Sneakers or hiking boots.
- Wear: layers to put on/ take off, it's cool in the morning and heats up by lunch
Meeting point and additional information will be sent out once you sign up and closer to the hike date.

**30 Spots MAX**
