Worcester Prep Wears Red

11/21/2024

Berlin, MD – On Wednesday, Worcester Preparatory School (WPS) students showed up in a sea of red in support of the American Red Cross.

Over the past few months, natural disasters have devastated the Southeast, leaving many Americans without basic needs such as food, water, shelter, and medical supplies. During times like this, the American Red Cross offers aid and supplies to those in need.

Students participated enthusiastically, bringing in donations in exchange for the opportunity to wear casual clothing instead of their standard uniforms. The vibrant display of red throughout the school served as a powerful reminder of the community’s commitment to supporting the Red Cross. Worcester Preparatory School is dedicated to fostering compassion among its students, and this event is a shining example of its commitment to making a positive impact.

Founded in 1970, WPS is a private, independent Pre-Kindergarten through Grade 12 School, located in Berlin, Maryland. Approximately 500 students attend from Maryland, Delaware and Virginia. For more information about WPS, please visit www.worcesterprep.org or call 410.641.3575.
