Principal's Message

Welcome Back Wilson Families,

Thank you so much for joining us for Curriculum Night on August 25, 2011.

With the implementation of the Common Core, we have the opportunity to foster critical thinking and problem solving. The rigor of the common core will help our children to strengthen, develop, and expand their capacity to journey from solving problems to problem solvers. We are excited to announce that Wilson Elementary has qualified to be a Title 1 School during the 2011-2012 school year. The change in our status will allow us to have more resources to work with children. Parents, according to the NCLB law, you have the right to know the professional qualifications of your child’s teacher.
Additionally, parents must be notified if their child is been assigned or has been taught for four or more consecutive weeks by, a teacher who is not highly qualified. Any teacher who has not taken and passed the PRAXIS is not highly qualified. All of the teachers at Wilson Elementary are highly qualified.

Finally, we would like to “Track Your Success” using several different venues. One of the first will be the Fun Run. We also had a kick off assembly to increase physical activity. It is called Walk More in 4, we would like to invite you to join us at the Culminating Activity Fun Run, which will be October 1, 2011.

Thanks for a great start up. We have enjoyed the first 8 days, 192 hours, 11,520 minutes, 691,200 seconds of this school year. We commit to honoring every single second of this precious endowment.

XOXO Miss Sundee
