Welcome to Wildwood Elementary

Mission Statement

At Wildwood Elementary, we are a pack united for success. We foster a safe, inclusive, and nurturing environment where every student is empowered to grow academically, socially, and emotionally.  Like wolves, we value collaboration, perseverance, and courage. Through high expectations, meaningful relationships, and a commitment to lifelong learning, we prepare our students to lead with integrity, curiosity, and confidence today and in the future.

Vision

We envision a thriving community where every student feels safe, valued, inspired, and capable of achieving greatness.

Every Day Counts!

Regular attendance helps students stay connected to their teachers, classmates, learning and school community. Missing just a few days can add up quickly, so let's work together from the very beginning of the school year to build strong attendance habits.

Together, we can help every student show up, stand out and succeed!

Wayne-Westland Wrap Up - Aim for 8: Every Day Matters

At Wayne-Westland Community Schools, we know that every school day matters. That’s why we’ve launched our “Aim for 8” attendance campaign to encourage families to make regular school attendance a priority.

Our goal is simple: students should aim to have 8 or fewer absences for the entire school year. Consistent attendance helps students stay connected to their teachers, classmates, and learning—and gives them the best opportunity to succeed.

Suicide Prevention Month - Care Solace

Care Solice Article: National Suicide Prevention Month

Dear Wayne-Westland Community School District Community,

As we enter September, schools across the nation observe National Suicide Prevention Month, anchored by World Suicide Prevention Day on September 10. Caring for the mental health and safety of our communities is a collective responsibility, and keeping everyone informed is one of the most effective ways to do this.

Recognizing the warning signs of suicidal ideation allows us to step in early. Changes to look for include:

  • Behavioral & Social: Withdrawing from friends, family, or favorite activities; giving away prized possessions; self-destructive choices; sudden changes in hygiene or sleep; or a sudden, unexpected boost in mood after a period of deep depression.
  • Verbal & Cognitive: Expressing feelings of hopelessness, excessive guilt, or being a burden; talking or writing about death; making statements like "I can't take it anymore"; or struggling to concentrate due to a fixation on dark thoughts.
  • Emotional & Situational: Extreme mood shifts, intense irritability, or processing severe stress from recent loss, breakup, bullying, or academic pressures.
