Principal's Message
I have been with the Canon-McMillan School District for 13 years. What initially drew me to the District was that my family lived in the community, and my daughter attended one of the local elementary schools. As a parent, I was impressed by the quality of education and the supportive environment I experienced firsthand. That positive impression inspired me to become part of the District professionally, contributing to its growth and ensuring that other families could also have meaningful and positive experiences with their children's education.
My vision for Wylandville Elementary School is to create a vibrant and inclusive learning community where every child is inspired by engaging, meaningful curriculum and supported by dedicated educators who work to make a lasting difference in the lives of students and their families. We strive to provide a safe and nurturing environment where all students feel valued, respected and empowered to explore their interests, discover their passions and grow as confident and capable learners. Through strong relationships, purposeful teaching and a commitment to continuous growth, we prepare our students for academic success and for a lifetime of curiosity.
Wylandville is entering an exciting period of growth as we begin a major construction project to thoughtfully merge our community with Borland Manor Elementary School. This transition will be guided by a spirit of inclusivity and collaboration, honoring the strengths and traditions of both schools as we come together to form a unified, even stronger community. Over the next few years, we will work to integrate our staff, students and families, drawing on the best of our shared past while embracing a bright future filled with new opportunities for learning, connection and achievement in a state-of-the-art educational space. I am excited to co-lead this endeavor with Dr. Wolfe from Borland Manor.
The things that I enjoy most about the Canon-McMillan School District are the opportunity to live, work and make a meaningful impact in the same community where my children have attended school. While Canon-McMillan is a large District with the many benefits that size brings, such as diverse programs and resources, it still maintains a close-knit, small-town feel where relationships feel like family.
Our students have access to a wide range of opportunities that empower them to pursue any future they can imagine. As educators and community members, we are committed to supporting them every step of the way, providing the tools they need to achieve their goals.
