A MESSAGE FROM OUR PRINCIPAL
Dear Wilson Parents and Community,
I am honored to serve as the principal of Wilson
Elementary, and it is my pleasure to welcome everyone
back for another great year! We are all excited to have
students back in our classrooms and hallways filling
them with energy and enthusiasm for learning. It is our
mission to help every child feel welcome, connected and
a special part of our Wilson family. Additionally, we want
to strive to challenge each student to grow in his or her
academic abilities and to reach their individual learning
goals. We have amazing teachers who spend hours
planning and creating classroom lessons to engage our
students in high levels of learning. We are very thankful
for the outstanding parent support at Wilson, this
connection gives such additional strength to our
students.
We hope that you will find our website helpful and
informative along with our Wilson Journal. We want to
keep you informed and provide the best communication
possible! Your family and students are very special to
us, so please always feel free to give us a call if you
have questions.
It is truly a privilege to be a part of a community where
parents, teachers and students care for each other and
strive to build positive relationships that support
academic and social growth.
Once again, welcome back! Let’s make it another great
year at Wilson together!
GO WILDCATS!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Heath
INFORMATION COMING HOME!
At Wilson Elementary, we send home a lot of information to
our parents. We realize that if you have multiple children in our
school, sometimes the amount of paper coming home can be
overwhelming! Any information that we need to share with
you will be sent home to either the YOUNGEST or the
ONLY child. Check backpacks daily!

***IMPORTANT POLICIES TO KNOW ***
Having Lunch Or Visiting A Classroom
We ask that anyone who is planning to eat lunch with a
student or visit a classroom must not only check in at the
front office, but also have proper ID with them. All
visitors and volunteers will be required to show a
picture I.D. If you are not on the student’s contact list
you will NOT be permitted to visit or eat lunch with a
student unless we receive a phone call or note from a
parent/guardian granting permission.
Picking Up Students During School Hours
If anyone other than a parent or guardian is picking up a
student during school hours, 7:45 a.m. – 2:15 p.m.
(1:15 on Wednesdays), we need either a note or a
telephone call from a parent/guardian. If it is at the end
of the day, students need to be picked up from the
parent pick-up area. Thank you for your cooperation in
keeping our students safe.
Keys 4 Success at Wilson
Students can earn recognition cards in the areas of Respect,
Responsibility, Kindness and Grit. Each card represents a
different color. Respect=Blue, Responsibility=Red,
Kindness=Green and Grit=Purple. Each time a student earns
their specific card, they get to bring it to the office and place it
in the special container. Their name will be read on the
announcements (on Thursday mornings). We will then place
their Keys 4 Success card on the bulletin board in the front
office and their name will appear in the Wilson Journal.
Students will also get to wear a “golden key” to be recognized
around campus for their outstanding accomplishments!
Morning Drop-Off
Student drop off is not allowed on Glade Ave. by the bus zone.
This area is for BUSES only. ALL students being dropped
off by parents should be dropped off in the kiss-and-go lane
on the east side of the school (Main Entrance that runs by
front office). The kiss-and-go lane is safe, convenient and fast.
Please make sure you are not parking, dropping off, or walking
across the street near the bus zone entrance. Also, please be
aware that students should not be arriving on campus until
7:25 am. All gates to the playground will be locked until
7:25 am. There is no supervision on our playgrounds until this
time. Thank you for helping us keep our Wilson Wildcats safe!
What’s TITLE I?
ART MASTERPIECE HELP
Art Masterpiece needs your help. We are looking for
parent volunteers to come into the classrooms about 8
times a year, for 20 minutes each visit. You will be given
an art piece to discuss with the students, so you won’t
need to worry about finding a subject. The students love
this and it is a great way to create a love of the arts. We
can’t do this without your help. We rely on parent helpers,
without them not all classrooms will be able to participate.
