This is the best school my children have ever gone to. It is filled with great kids, parents and teachers. The new principal is a sweetheart and knows how to get the job done with care and compassion. We are very happy to have this as our neighborhood school and are looking forward to spending many more years there enjoying the great education, opportunities to volunteer and to making lasting friendships!
We were so nervous about our son's transition from a nurturing preschool to a public school Kindergarten. In addition, we were concerned with the school budget cuts. The parents of Wilbur are extremely committed to making this school the best it can possibly be. Parents are always volunteering and raising money for the school through the Friends of Wilbur. We are so pleased to be a part of this wonderful community school. We love Wilbur!!
Toured 4 schools before choosing. Our principle is AMAZINGLY PROACTIVE and open to new ideas. The Enrichment Program after school is unparalleled in the amount of options there are for a budding child. The teachers allow parental involvement and work wonderful as a team with parents. I feel so fortunate my daughter can go to Wilbur. Each year, it continues to get better through the Friends of Wilbur projects and opportunities to make Wilbur continually advance.
The dedication of the teachers and principal cannot be matched with any other public school.
Best teachers, best kids, best parents, best enrichment programs, best PTA+ Booster Club combined called Friends of Wilbur! We love our school!
Wilbur is more than a school - it is a family. The children, parents, teachers and staff all work together!
Wilbur is not just a wonderful school offering great enrichment programs and fabulous teachers. It is also a community.
the parents are always around, whatever the teachers need the parents make sure they get without any trouble. when we need to fight the district for something the principal is on our side and still doing things within the rules. wilbur rocks!!!
School employees and parents all work together to have a better school for the children.
