From The Principal

Hello Wiley Families,

I hope that you have been enjoying these beautiful Indian Summer Days ~ the weather was wonderful for our Trunk or Treat event on Saturday.  Hopefully  the weather will stay nice for Halloween!

Our FUN RUN was a huge success!  Thank to everyone who participated.  The funds will be used to provide transportation for field trips, bring in assemblies, and support teachers with funding for their classrooms.
 
Please be sure to read the newest edition of the newsletter  as it contains a lot of important information.  You can read it here: Wiley Way

Fall Conferences are coming up; please be sure to schedule a time to meet with your child's teacher.  For your convenience there are both in-person and virtual options.  Additionally, we have both evening and afternoon conferences available.

 As always, thank you for all you do to help make Wiley such a wonderful school community.   Working together, we will continue to accomplish great things!

Sincerely,
Mrs. Merivirta

Our Mission
The mission of our school is to create and maintain an environment that ensures that every member of the school community reaches a high level of academic achievement as determined by local, state and national standards. We commit to a comprehensive system of support to assure this outcome.

Our Philosophy
We the staff, students, and community of Wiley strive to develop the whole person who grows academically, socially, and emotionally in an environment that encourages life-long learning and productive living.

“Summer slide” is a true phenomenon. Summer slide is when students lose some of the academic gains they made during the previous school year, from lack of practice during the summer months. Read on to find out how to stop the summer slide from happening with your child in reading! 

Six books to summer success: Research shows that reading and rereading at least six books during the summer may keep a reader from falling behind. When choosing the six books, be sure that they are just right — not too hard and not too easy.
How do you choose the books….Take advantage of your local library. Ask for help selecting books that match your child's age, interests, and abilities. Libraries often run summer reading programs that motivate kids to read, so find out what's available in your area. Also check scholastic.com booklists for recommendations.
