Mission

WPS IS AN INNOVATIVE SECONDARY SCHOOL WITH AN ADVANCED MODEL OF EDUCATION WHERE LEARNING THRIVES EVERYWHERE - IN OUR CLASSROOM, THROUGH INTERNSHIPS, AND THROUGHOUT THE LOCAL AND GREATER COMMUNITIES. OUR TEACHERS ARE DEDICATED TO CREATING CURRICULUM PROGRAMS THAT DEEPEN LEARNING BY FOSTERING STUDENT AND TEACHER DIRECTED LEARNING, THEREBY EMPOWERING STUDENTS (AND THEIR FAMILIES), AND TEACHERS, TO SHAPE THEIR OWN EDUCATIONAL JOURNEY AND TO EXPERIENCE LEARNING AS BEING UNBOUNDED, VERSUS ONE SIZE FITS ALL. WE BELIEVE THAT STUDENTS LEARN BEST WHEN THEY HAVE CONNECTIONS WITH THEIR COMMUNITY, BECOME EMPOWERED LEARNERS, AND HAVE SCHOOL OPPORTUNITIES THAT ARE UNBOUNDED. THE SUCCESSFUL INTERNATIONAL HACKATHON, ATTENDED BY 150 STUDENTS FROM AROUND THE GLOBE, IS AN EXAMPLE OF OUR STUDENT DESIGNED PROGRAMMING. OUR NEWLY DEVELOPED SUMMER LEADERSHIP INSTITUTE IS AN EXAMPLE OF HOW A STUDENT AGENCY IS PROMOTED ON OUR CAMPUS.

Each tax year counts once: when a return was amended, only the latest return for that period is used below (superseded returns stay listed, greyed, under Finances).

People paid by the organization

4 people paid across every filing: current people first, then by total pay from this organization. Organizations counts every nonprofit each person appears on.

Officers and directors, no compensation reported

2 people listed on the returns with $0 (or no amount) in every compensation column: current people first. Hours are as filed on the latest return each person appears on.

People by year

Highest-paid independent contractors

Who the money went to

Grants this organization reported paying: Schedule I Part II of the Form 990, or the grants-paid list on the 990-PF. Open a year for every recipient. Recipients link to their own page when the grant names an EIN we have (990-PF grants list no EIN, so those link only on an exact, unique name and state). Grants to individuals are counted; their names are not shown.

Negative amounts are returned or refunded grants; they are listed last and left out of the totals of grants paid.

Who gave

Contributor names are not public for this form type.

Public charities filing Form 990 or 990-EZ report large donors on Schedule B, but the IRS withholds their names and addresses from public copies. Private foundations (990-PF) are different: their contributors are public.

Finances

Newest first. Each filing: its name on one row, its figures on the row beneath. Greyed filings are superseded by a later return for the same period and are left out everywhere else on this page.

Funders of this organization

1 grantor reported grants to this organization, $2,965,162 in all, tax years 2025 to 2025. Exact: the grantor wrote this organization's EIN. Fuzzy: the grantor wrote only a name (foundations' 990-PF has no EIN field), matched to the same or a near-identical name in the same state; the name as filed is shown. From the latest return for each grantor and year, so amended returns aren't counted twice. CSV

Similar organizations

Ranked without any AI: same NTEE code first, then the same NTEE group; then revenue within 2x, 5x or 10x; then the same state; then similar name and mission text. Same state only · More (100)

Who funds organizations like this

Grantors that funded the 100 most similar organizations. Ranked by total given to them. Foundations (990-PF) and donor-advised fund sponsors only. Same matching as Funders above (by EIN, or by name for foundations).

Where the money went

Every expense line on each return, biggest first: Form 990 Part IX (with its program, management and fundraising columns), 990-EZ Part I, or 990-PF Part I. Event marks lines the organization itself describes as events. “Events” in each summary adds those lines, conferences and meetings, and the direct costs of fundraising events. Unusual is not the same as improper. Many of these patterns have ordinary explanations. Check the filing.
