Willow Glen Education Foundation
Willow Glen Education Foundation is a nonprofit organization serving Willow Glen Middle School (WGMS) and Willow Glen High School (WGHS). We are a school-connected organization (SCO) and we develop resources and fund programs that inspire, promote, and support the academic achievement as well as social and cultural enrichment of all students at WGMS and WGHS.
We’re similar to a PTA, but a little different!
We are one of four separate parent organizations that work together at WGHS and WGMS to help ensure your children have a well-rounded school experience during their middle and high school years.
What’s new and upcoming?
School’s officially out for summer! We wish ALL of our students, families and staff a restful and fun summer!

If you plan to volunteer on campus during school hours, you must register as a volunteer with SJUSD each year and receive an official email from the district confirming your clearance. This process is the same for the entire district and can take several weeks, especially at the beginning of the school year. Get a head start by renewing/applying now.

For our August meeting, we combine with WG Athletic Boosters, Willow Glen Performing Arts Boosters, and Willow Glen Cares for an informational meeting to allow parents to learn about all of the parent organizations that work together across both campuses to support our children.
Meetings are free and open to all members of our community. Principals from both the middle school and high school attend to provide updates as well. Learn more, join us in person, or listen remotely on Google Meet for an audio stream.
