Our teachers ROCK! #WEloveSPIRITdays
So proud of our fifth grade students and their amazing engineering and art designs using 3-D pens. Students explored 2-D versus 3-D, shape, form, balance, and unity, and the creativity on display was impressive. Way to go!
This was one of those moments that just makes you smile.
Our Pre-K students hand-delivered the Valentines they made for our veterans, spreading so much love and gratitude. So sweet and so meaningful. ❤️#WandellPride

Wandell School is spreading kindness in a BIG way! 💙
Our Kindness Challenge is in full swing, and we’re teaming it up with our Souper Bowl to help those in need in our community. 🥫✨
Every act of kindness and every can of soup donated makes a difference. Let’s show what happens when compassion and community come together at Wandell—one kind act (and one bowl of soup!) at a time. 💫

📢 📺 7:00 PM Board of Education Livestream Notice:
As this is our first time livestreaming a Board of Education meeting through YouTube, final platform approval is still pending. We are hopeful approval will be received before 7:00 p.m. If approval is not granted by that time, tonight’s meeting will not stream live; however, the full recording will be uploaded to the same link immediately after the meeting concludes. This is expected to be a one-time issue, and all future meetings will livestream as planned. Thank you for your patience—we truly appreciate your support.
