Corolla Schoolhouse

Water’s Edge Village School

Grounded in partnerships with children and families, WEVS is a free, K-8, public charter school located in Corolla, NC. Their mission is to provide local education in a rigorous, child-centered learning environment to its isolated coastal community. As Corolla’s infrastructure expands, the school needs more classroom space to accommodate the growing number of families in town! WEVS is currently in the process of raising funds to build an additional schoolhouse to continue supporting their mission.
