Principal’s Message
Dear Parents and Future Parents,
Wilder Penfield is an engaging and welcoming school community in which your children will thrive.
We work hard at promoting a community of kindness and respect. The teachers, daycare staff and support staff work tirelessly to ensure that students receive the best education possible and that they develop a love of learning.
Our teachers and support staff instill a passion for learning by challenging and nurturing students academically, socially, and emotionally. From the high level of academics to a variety of extracurricular sports and clubs’ teachers lead, to our Mindset room that support our students emotional learning, we are here to support the whole student so that they can in turn reach their true potential.
We are thrilled that two large new play structures have been installed this year in our kindergarten area of the school yard for our little ones to play on and work on their climbing, balance, and creativity skills. Still to come are the garden boxes and the planting of new trees to complete the project. Thank you to the staff and volunteer parents who were part of the Playground Committee.
We are thankful to have fabulous parents that are involved and volunteer at Wilder through the Home and School. This parent-led group is amazing and work to support the school and the students. They host the Monster Mash, the Holiday Breakfast, the end-of-year BBQ, and staff appreciation week, just to name a few, not to mention all the fundraising they do to help purchase items for the students and teachers to make their learning experience even more memorable.
I always say Wilder Penfield is home, when you join our school, you become part of the family and we look forward to adding you to our family and counting you as one of our own. Welcome to Wilder!
