The Principal's Corner & Reading Room

Dear Parents,

Welcome to the new school year. I hope that everyone had a great summer and you're excited to be back. If you are new to Marilyn Wilson Elementary, I would like to welcome you to our school and encourage you to become an active participant in your child's education. I believe you will find our school to be a welcoming place where all children are encouraged and engaged in learning. As a community we can make a difference. I believe an effective elementary school is about connections:

The effective school connects people, to create COMMUNITY
The effective school connects the curriculum, to create COHERENCE
The effective school connects classrooms, to enrich the learning CLIMATE
The effective school connects learning to life, to build CHARACTER

The purpose of an effective elementary school is to keep the urge to learn alive in every child. An effective school builds the foundation necessary to be successful in life. It is the essence of all that we do. Please join us; it is rewarding work. Again welcome to Wilson Elementary School . Let's have a productive and positive year.

Sincerely,

John Nesbitt
