Principal Message

Dear Wilson Families,

Thank you, again, for all of your support and service throughout the 2011-2012 school year.  I can’t say enough about the wonderful PTA.  They have sponsored successful activities and events that have made Wilson Elementary and its community a better place. 

This year students have excelled in many activities, including the science fairs, the spelling bee, the Grand Beehive, plays, orchestra, and reflections.  They donated approximately 400 items of food, one ton of clothing and service learning.

As we look forward to the common core implementation, I would encourage you to go on line and review its components.  The website is www.corestandards.org we love the rigor and the opportunity for students to apply their great thinking skills.

I would encourage you to ask your children to use thinking maps to explain his or her thinking about any subject.

Have an enjoyable summer!!

Xoxo Miss Sundee

PTA President Message

Dear Parents,

Wow!  May already?  This school year has flown by!  We still need PTA Board members for next year.  If you or anyone you know is interested, PLEASE let me know!  The Utah State PTA Leadership Convention is happening May 10^th and 11^th in Provo.  It is a great opportunity for the new Board to learn about the upcoming year and you don’t want to miss it! 

For those of you who have been able to give of your time and talents for the PTA this year, a HUGE thank you!  It takes numerous people to make the PTA function and I appreciate all of you!

Wilson Elementary is such a wonderful school and we are blessed our children have the opportunity to attend.  The staff, teachers, and Principal Sundee are amazing! 

PLEASE let me know if you would like to hold a PTA Board position- especially President! 

Thanks again,
