Happy Fathers Day to our fathers in the W.B. Wicker Elementary School community.
A huge congratulations to our talented W.B. Wicker Dance Troupe for their performance at the annual Juneteenth Celebration on campus! Our students proudly showcased their hard work, dedication, and creativity as they performed to a collection of music by the legendary Michael Jackson.
We are incredibly proud of these students for representing our school so well and for helping make our Juneteenth celebration a memorable event for our families and community.
Thank you to our dance instructors, families, and supporters who continue to encourage our students to shine both in and out of the classroom.

Good afternoon,
I have a meeting scheduled with our Technology Department to begin the recovery process for all missing Chromebooks that have been identified by our school technician.
Please note that all Chromebooks must be returned to the school if you discover that your child brought a device home for the summer. During the summer months, our technicians conduct a thorough review of all devices, complete necessary repairs, and prepare them for student use in the upcoming school year.
If your child happens to have a Chromebook at home, please return it to the school as soon as possible. We appreciate your cooperation and support in helping us account for all school-issued devices.
Also, we are very close to meeting out goal at the PTO Thrift store. We need 29 hours and we will meet our goal for the year. Please consider volunteering at the store to help the PTO.
Thank you.
