Unity Through Community
I want to take a moment to thank each of you for your incredible resilience and teamwork during this challenging week of California fires and power outages.
Our students showed remarkable adaptability this week, our staff went above and beyond to ensure our students were safe and that learning continued seamlessly, and our families supported one another with care and understanding. In times like these, the strength of our Wildwood community truly shines.
Thank you for coming together to support one another and for embodying the spirit of perseverance and kindness. I am proud to be part of such an extraordinary school community.
Take care and stay safe,
Mr. Lynch

Start the New Year Right: Arrive On Time!
At Wildwood Elementary, we’re committed to helping every student start the day ready to learn! Arriving on time sets the tone for a successful day and helps your child stay engaged and focused.
This year, let’s make punctuality a priority. Morning routines and prompt arrivals not only reduce stress but also ensure your child doesn’t miss out on valuable instructional time.
Thank you for partnering with us to create the best learning environment for all students. Let’s make 2025 a year of success—starting with being on time!
A Volunteer Opportunity You Don't Want to Miss
Mobile Ed is bringing the STEAM Museum to Wildwood Elementary on Friday, January 24! This program will turn our multi-purpose room into a state-of-the-art, hands-on children’s museum focused on STEAM education (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math). Students will rotate through stations to experience robots, virtual reality, 3D printing, art, engineering, and more!
Every student will have the opportunity to participate in this one-of-a-kind experience, and we need parent volunteers to supervise some of these self-run stations at these assemblies. Please take a look at THIS form and consider signing-up to serve at one (or more) of our seven grade level assemblies.
