Next school year brings a bittersweet change for our campus as our incredible 5th grade teachers begin new journeys at Wylie South Elementary and Wylie West Intermediate. (And a few we get to keep. 🤗)

It is impossible to fully put into words how much these teachers have meant to our students, families, and staff. They have poured their hearts into teaching, encouraged students through every challenge, celebrated every success, and created classrooms filled with learning, laughter, and love.

Thank you for everything you have given to our school and to the countless students whose lives you have touched. You will always be an important part of our campus family. 💜💛

The last day of school and the last day of junior high for our 8th graders. And just like the song says , “Butterflies fly away” 🦋 and somehow, “everything’s gonna be okay”.

Cruising back in time with The Outsiders!

Our 8th grade students brought the novel to life today as they dressed as characters from the book and explored classic cars that helped capture the spirit and setting of the story. A huge thank you to everyone who shared their amazing vehicles and helped make literature come alive for our students. “Stay gold,” Bulldogs! ✨
