Welcome back Wildwood Wolves! We are kicking off 2025 with another valentine challenge and we need YOUR help! Our Wildwood Student Council is going to try and collect valentines from all 50 states and as many countries as possible! Please share with anyone that could help!

The Cities of Wayne, Westland, Inkster, and Garden City received a Safe Streets for All grant (which NKFM provided a letter of support for) to develop a safety action plan for all four cities to reduce and eliminate traffic related fatalities and injuries for drivers, bikers, pedestrians and other roadway users. They are beginning their community engagement process with a website where you can map places that you think are unsafe. Click the link below to share your input if you are interested!

We are currently in a statewide Prodigy competition and Wildwood is in 3rd place! We have made incredible gains over the past week! If you are having trouble accessing Prodigy from home, click on the link below to watch a video that we hope will help!

If your child or anyone in your family is in need of a winter coat, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Our school social worker, Mrs. VanSchoick, is here to help. You can contact her directly at vanschoicka@wwcsd.net.

We would like to remind everyone, to minimize disruptions during the final instructional period of the day, early pick-ups will not be allowed after 3:00 PM. We kindly ask that you plan any necessary early dismissals accordingly.

Also, if you need to change your child’s means of transportation, please call the office directly so that we can ensure the message gets to the correct staff member and student.

Thank you for your cooperation in helping us maintain a focused and productive learning environment for all our students.

Students that need to receive medication at school need to have the proper paperwork filled out. Even if your student received medication last year, a new form needs to be turned in before medication can be dropped off. Please make arrangements to drop off medication and the supporting documentation to the main office. Medication should not be sent to school along with the student for safety concerns.

Wayne-Westland Community Schools participates in the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) as part of the National School Lunch and Breakfast Programs. This ensures that ALL enrolled students receive breakfast and lunch at NO CHARGE to your household!

To help us maintain this program, we ask parents and guardians to complete and sign the Education Benefits Form (available on the Meal Magic Family Portal https://waynewestland.familyportal.cloud/) and return it to your child's school as soon as possible.

This form is crucial for your child's school to receive important funding from state and federal programs . Your help makes a big difference!

For any questions or assistance, contact our Food Services Department at 734-419-2118.

Just a reminder that there will not be Bright Futures at Wildwood this year. If you are still in need of before and after school care through Champions, please enroll today!

The Wayne-Westland Food Service Department is proud to offer students a variety of delicious yet healthy breakfast and lunch choices. The lunch program uses an efficient point-of-sale swipe card system, significantly reducing wait times and allowing students more time to enjoy their meals.

We offer an extensive selection of additional products for students to purchase during lunch, including beverages, bagged snacks, and desserts. While the selection varies by school and grade level, students can conveniently buy snacks using cash or their student lunch accounts.

Funding the student lunch account is simple through the Meal Magic Family Portal, with detailed instructions provided below. Please note that we currently do not accept credit or debit cards. For any questions or issues regarding purchases or lunch accounts, please email foodservice@wwcsd.net or call the Food Service Department at (734) 419-2118.
