This is a fun event to bring the Wolftrap community together and we encourage everyone to come and skate. No minimum skating ability is required and everyone is welcome! There will be a variety of music to appeal to all Wolftrap attendees, students, teachers and parents alike!

Be sure to purchase your tickets TODAY!
Congratulations to all our students who competed in Odyssey of the Mind this past Saturday! Because rules strictly prohibit adult assistance, every prop, punch line, and problem solved was the result of the student's invention and imagination! The results were spectacular! Thank you so much to Mrs. Burdett for her leadership, and to her and all of the coaches for their guidance as they empowered our kids.
Calling All Heroes in Pajamas! (Yes, you. Even if your superpower is just…ordering things online.)
The WES 5K Pajama Jog is coming up on April 19, 2026, and it’s our biggest fundraiser of the year! That means we need an elite squad of creative minds, logistical legends, fundraising phenoms, and people who simply enjoy checking things off lists. (Seriously—no amount of help is too small!)
Have 5 minutes to spare?
You can be in charge of ordering medals. Boom. Instant hero status.
Have a little more time?
Help us with fundraising, raffle baskets, food orders, logistics, or whatever mysterious magic makes a 5K run smoothly. We might even be bringing back the silent auction…
Have a LOT of time?
We love you. There are many ways you can help!
If you're interested in helping out with this year's 5K, please send an email to wolftrap5k@gmail.com!
The all-new 2026 Camp Invention® program is coming to curious kids in the Wolftrap community from July 20th to 24th! Inspire innovative thinking with fun-filled STEM experiences designed to spark creativity and a love for learning. Rising K-6 campers will collaborate with friends to tackle hands-on, open-ended challenges. They’ll team up with robotic capybaras, ride the waves of entrepreneurship, uncover the power of protecting their ideas and build their own DIY space rocket! Each experience is designed to spark confidence, build persistence and create unforgettable summer memories.
Visit invent.org/mylocalcamp to secure your spot! Use promo code SUM20 to save $20. Families registering multiple campers can save by using SIBSAVE30 to save $60 when you enroll two campers, and save $120 by using SIBSAVE40 when you enroll three or more campers! Payment plans are available.
Wolftrap's official 2025-2026 Yearbook is now on sale through April 8th! Order via MySchoolBucks. For those new to the platform, you will have to create an account, which will link to your student(s) and let you access the Wolftrap School Store to place an order. (Click on store home. You may see a past order date, if it is from 2025, it was last school year's order.)
Yearbooks will be distributed by the school at the end of the school year. April 8th is an absolute deadline.
Please also continue to send any pictures to yearbook@wolftrappta.org.
