πŸŒͺ️ WCS Most Valuable Players πŸ†πŸ§‘πŸ–€

This week, 37 Advanced Placement students recognized their Wilmington City Schools β€œMost Valuable Players” with heartfelt speeches and certificates honoring staff members who made a meaningful impact on their educational journey.

Throughout the year, students in the AP class focused on argumentative and analytical writing. To close out the year, students used those skills in a unique and personal way by building arguments for why their chosen staff member deserved to be recognized as an MVP within their building or across the district.

Over the last two days, students presented their speeches and essays directly to their nominees, creating memorable moments of appreciation and celebration. πŸ‘

What a powerful way to combine writing, reflection, and gratitude while recognizing the educators and staff members who help make Wilmington special!

πŸŽ“πŸ’› Kindergarten Memories to Treasure πŸŒͺ️

Mrs. McFadden’s kindergarten class recently reflected on their favorite memories from Kindergarten 2026, celebrating a year filled with learning, growth, and special experiences together.

Throughout the year, students learned their letters and sounds, practiced addition and subtraction, and built important foundational skills. But as Mrs. McFadden shared, the greatest lesson may have been something even bigger:

β€œ...my favorite thing we learned this year was how to be a class family.” πŸ’›

What a beautiful reminder that learning goes beyond academics and that the connections built in the classroom help make school such a special place. Congratulations to this wonderful group of kindergarteners on an amazing year! πŸ‘

🐍 Preschoolers Get Up Close with Safari Phil! πŸŒͺ️

On Monday, Wilmington preschool students welcomed a very special guest, Safari Phil, for an unforgettable hands-on learning experience!

Students had the opportunity to see, feel, and learn about a variety of reptiles and insects, including snakes, lizards, geckos, beetles, tarantulas, and tortoises 🐒πŸͺ³πŸ¦Ž

This interactive visit gave students a fun and engaging way to explore the natural world while building curiosity, confidence, and excitement for learning through real-life animal encounters.

What an amazing day of discovery for our youngest learners! 🌟
