The Friends of Walgrove (F.O.W.) group Walgrove Avenue Elementary is working hard to get money and support from the community so that students can have more opportunities and programs that will help them grow. Recent efforts have included helping the Wildlands and Edible Garden, the STEAM Studio, and the P.S. Arts Theater.

Parents are raving about how strong the school's sense of community is, and many are praising the hard work of the teachers and staff.

The school's unique programs, like "The Wildlands," an outdoor learning area full of native plants, and free after-school musical theater and violin classes, are really changing students' lives. The Parent Tour of Walgrove and Coffee with the Principal are two upcoming events that show how committed the school is to being open and involved in the community. Walgrove Avenue Elementary is a true gem in LAUSD because it focuses on whole-person education and getting involved in the community.
