A parent-led organization enriching our school community.

Friends of Wai'alae School (FWS) is a parent-led volunteer group that partners with the school to build community, support teachers and staff, and create joyful experiences for our keiki and their families.

We plan events and projects, fundraise, share helpful information, and make space for families to connect.

WHY GET INVOLVED?
