🏠👾 Monsters & Mansions at Wise! 👾🏠

Our G/T families had a spooky good time at Monsters and Mansions night! Parents and students teamed up to build their own monster houses, then got creative with science by using play-doh, batteries, and circuits to light them up. 💡

Thank you to all the families who came out to build, create, and explore together!

📚✨Every Day Counts, Every Student Matters!✨📚

Showing up to school every day is more than just attendance—it's about building a brighter future! 🌟 Every day in the classroom is an opportunity to learn, grow, build friendships, and achieve success.

When students miss school, they miss valuable learning experiences that can make a big difference. 💙

🎒Be Present. Stay Engaged. Make Every Day Count!

📚✨¡Cada día cuenta, cada estudiante importa!✨📚

Asistir a la escuela todos los días es más que solo estar presente: ¡se trata de construir un futuro mejor! 🌟 Cada día en el salón de clases es una oportunidad para aprender, crecer, forjar amistades y alcanzar el éxito.

Cuando los estudiantes faltan a la escuela, se pierden valiosas experiencias de aprendizaje que pueden marcar una gran diferencia. 💙

🎒Asiste a clases. Mantente activo. ¡Haz que cada día cuente!

Chapel Hill Class of 2023 graduate Malcolm Passama returned today with a special gift—100 pairs of shoes for students at Jackson and Wise elementary schools! 👟

Through Tradehome Shoes’ Shoes for Kids program, customer purchases helped make this donation possible. When Malcolm had the chance to choose where to give back, his answer was simple: “There was no question that I was going to pick Chapel Hill.”

Thank you to Malcolm, Tradehome Shoes at Broadway Square Mall and their customers for supporting our students. These smiles say it all! 📸

🎉 National Principals Month Spotlight: Ms. Kathryn Wimberley

Today, we are celebrating Wise Elementary Principal Kathryn Wimberley—a leader who makes school fun while giving every student an opportunity to succeed.

“She always gives everyone a chance to succeed with fun awards,” said third-grade student Ajqa Talha.

“Ms. Wimberley makes fun challenges for our school,” added third-grade student Eric Martinez.

Ms. Wimberley says what she loves most about being a principal is the opportunity to impact and serve 600 students and their families each day instead of only one classroom. If Wise Elementary had a theme song, she would choose “Try Everything” by Shakira!

A few fun facts about Ms. Wimberley: She has memorized most students’ vehicles and can recognize their parents in the car line. She also always keeps a curling iron in her office—and may occasionally sneak a Reese’s egg from Mrs. Strange’s candy jar! 😂

Thank you, Ms. Wimberley, for creating fun opportunities, encouraging students to succeed and serving the Wise Elementary community each day. 💙💛

⚠️ Threats Are No Joke.

Every threat—whether made in person, online or as a joke—is taken seriously and can lead to disciplinary action and legal consequences.

Please talk with your child about the importance of making responsible choices and reporting concerning behavior. If students see or hear something that could threaten the safety of others, they should not share or respond to it. They should immediately tell a trusted adult, teacher, administrator or law enforcement officer.

Keeping our schools safe is a shared responsibility. Watch the video and help us reinforce this important message: Threats are no joke.
