Big announcement and even bigger congratulations!

We are incredibly proud to celebrate Dr. McIntosh as she takes on her new role as the Assistant Principal at Commerce Middle School!

For the past 6 years, Dr. McIntosh has been the heartbeat of our RLA department here at Wilkinson as our Instructional Coach. To say she will be missed is a massive understatement.
Dr. McIntosh, your time at Wilkinson has left an undeniable mark on all of us. We are going to deeply miss:
Your Instructional Impact: You’ve elevated our classrooms, inspired our teachers, and always pushed for academic excellence.
Your Cultural Impact: You’ve helped shape a school culture that is warm, inclusive, and forward-thinking.
Your Connections: The genuine, effective relationships you build with our students have changed lives and set a beautiful example for us all.

Commerce Middle School is gaining an absolute gem of a leader. While our hallways won’t be quite the same without you, we are so excited to see you shine in this next chapter of your leadership journey.

Thank you for everything, Dr. McIntosh. Once a Wildcat, always a Wildcat.

Today we celebrate Mr. Powell as he begins a new chapter as the Principal of Woden High School!

For the past 3 years, Mr. Powell has been a tremendous part of the Wilkinson family. His ability to connect with students is truly special — a true kid magnet with a father’s heart. Whether it was encouraging students, building relationships, showing up for families, or simply making kids feel seen and valued, he led with love every single day.

Mr. Powell also kept staff morale high with another one of his many talents — being a true grill master! From his famous smoked salsa to the smoked bacon he would cook for staff, he always found ways to bring people together and make Wilkinson feel like family.

While we are sad to see him leave Wilkinson, we are incredibly proud of him and excited for the impact he will make at Woden High School. They are gaining an outstanding leader, mentor, and advocate for kids.

Thank you, Mr. Powell, for pouring into our students and staff the way you did. Once a Wildcat, always a Wildcat! Congratulations and best wishes on this well-deserved opportunity! 🐾
