Welcome to Wilkes Elementary School, a very special place. Our Mission is to guide the path of learning, which:
Honors the uniqueness of culture,
Provides children with a safe and threat-free environment, and
Encourages choices that provide healthy lifestyles and interpersonal relationships.
At Wilkes we believe that…
“Each student has a right to attend school to learn and to play in a positive, safe, threat-free environment.”
We teach and reinforce appropriate behavior through a school-wide behavior plan expectations.
The Wildcat Way!
We have a whole school culture of working together to shape positive behavior and a positive school climate in order to create an atmosphere where students best learn the academics. This is what we strive for at Wilkes Elementary School. Our school rules are: Be SAFE, Be RESPECTFUL, and Be RESPONSIBLE. We constantly teach our students what our rules look like and sound like in all settings throughout our school, including: classrooms, playground, bus, cafeteria, hallways, arrival & dismissal, bathrooms, and assemblies.
