Trunk or Treat

Enjoy a fun evening in October in your costumes with your FWES friends and families. Trunk or Treat promotes a fun, safe environment for children and families to trick or treat.

Reflections Arts Contest

The National PTA Reflections Program is an arts recognition and achievement program for PreK-12th grade students. It offers students an opportunity to express themselves creatively in six different art categories and to receive positive recognition for original works of art inspired by a pre-selected theme. The 2025–2026 Reflections Contest theme is “I Belong!" Students are invited to reflect on this theme and create work(s) of art in one or more of the available categories: Dance Choreography, Film Production, Literature, Music Composition, Photography, and/or Visual Arts. LEARN MORE HERE!

Cultural Arts

The PTA funds cultural arts programming, including performances or residencies, that take place during the school day and feature a variety of professional artists and performers to enrich students’ experiences in the arts. The Artists in Schools Program is a partnership between United Arts Council of Raleigh and Wake County, the Wake County Public School System, and local schools.

Family Academy Nights

FWES PTA partners with WCPSS Family Academy to bring workshops to our school community about relevant topics of discussion. Childcare is provided during workshops whose target audience is mainly adults. The workshops are conducted in both English and Spanish.

Every year, a Yearbook is created entirely by dedicated PTA volunteers who generously give their time and creativity to capture the heart of each school year.
