Outreach

We believe strongly in the value of service to the community and our curriculum and program reflects that value. We partner with local and regional non-profits as our students and staff engage in service to those organizations. While providing critically needed human resources to a variety of causes, our students gain real skills and insight into their greater communities.

Our students have provided service to:

• Post Katrina clean up and restoration through three consecutive annual trips to Waveland Mississippi.
• Ongoing service to the Chesapeake Bay Environmental Center (CBEC) in Grasonville, Maryland.
• Ongoing service to the Choptank Area Habitat for Humanity.
• Kent Island Lions Club, Leo Club.
• Ongoing service to Wye Island Natural Resource Management Area.
• Queenstown Bank's Give 2 the Troops.
• Philabundance in Philadelphia, Pa.

"I really enjoy the partnership between CBEC and Wye River Upper School. We have both benefited from working with good people who have a common interest to do what is best for the kids." - Judy Wink, Executive Director, Chesapeake Bay Environment Center
