WEF Grants in action! 🧠🔬

Thanks to a WEF grant, Jeffrey Robin, Wellesley High School Anatomy & Physiology teacher, brought the cutting-edge Anatomage Table into the classroom. Students can explore the human body, interact with anatomical structures in real time, and practice procedures without the need for physical cadavers—making learning more engaging and hands-on.

This is one example of how WEF grants support innovative learning across Wellesley Public Schools.

Join us at the 37th Annual Wellesley Spelling Bee and help make more ideas like this possible! 🐝📚
