Greetings!  

Welcome to Winegard Elementary! We are excited your family chose to be with us. Our staff works hard to make sure we have all of the resources and tools our students need and we can't wait to see what kind of student achievement comes out of this school year. We look forward to spending time with students and families at our monthly family nights, and hope that everyone can join us!

We at Winegard Elementary understand that each student is unique with their own interests, skills, and learning styles. Our teachers are committed to providing an engaging curriculum - one that challenges each child in ways that help them find success. We know that with the right teaching and support, our students can achieve great things.

We also understand that parents are a vital part of their children's success in school. We encourage families to take an active role in their student's learning by attending parent-teacher conferences, assisting with homework, reading together at home, and more. 

At Winegard Elementary, we strive to create an environment that is warm and inviting for students and their families. We welcome your thoughts, questions, and expertise - all of which are essential to helping our school reach its highest potential. Together, let's make this a great year! 

Best Regards,
