shoe tying club

If you haven't heard, a Shoe Tying Club is happening at WES every Wednesday and Friday mornings at breakfast, and it's become quite the hit.

Amanda Fortier, Physical Therapist for the Wiscasset School Department, runs the club using shoe models and a catchy song to help students master the skill. Once they've got it, they earn a badge and a spot on the Shoe Tying Wall of Fame. Older students buddy up with the younger ones, cheering them on and helping them practice.

Amanda comes dressed in a full shoe costume, which brings smiles to students and staff who love it every time.
