Dear Wiley School Community,
Welcome to the 2025–2026 school year! I hope each of you had a restful and rejuvenating summer and are ready to begin another year of learning, growth, and collaboration. As we open our doors this fall, we do so with a renewed sense of purpose and a clear vision for the future.
This year, our work will continue to be guided by our Strategic Plan, which is built on four key pillars:
Academic Excellence – We remain committed to providing every student with a challenging, engaging, and high-quality education. From early literacy to advanced coursework, our goal is to ensure all learners have the skills and knowledge they need to thrive in college, career, and life.
Operational Excellence – We are dedicated to using our resources wisely, ensuring that our schools run efficiently, effectively, and sustainably. This includes continued investment in technology, facilities, and systems that best support teaching and learning.
Parent and Community Involvement – We know that strong schools are built on strong partnerships. This year, we will expand opportunities for parents, caregivers, and community members to engage meaningfully in our schools, share their voices, and work alongside us to support student success.
Safe and Supportive Environment for All – The well-being of our students and staff remains our highest priority. We will continue to foster school environments where every individual feels safe, respected, and supported—physically, emotionally, and academically.
As we embark on this new school year, let us work together to make it one filled with inspiration, achievement, and a shared commitment to excellence. Thank you for your continued partnership and for the trust you place in our school every day. Together, we will make 2025–2026 a year to remember.

What to look for in a school board candidate
By Wiley School District
In this very challenging era for public schools, here and across the nation, highly effective governing is needed as never before. As you consider candidates for our school board, here are some qualities I believe to be crucial:
Strong interpersonal skills
If only one set of skills were available for an individual to select in order to be an effective school board member, I would advise the selection of solid interpersonal skills and attributes, including communication, trustworthiness, honesty, confidentiality, consistency and other such traits that allow interpersonal relationships to blossom.
Also, key is concern for the entire school district – not for a special interest or a narrow philosophy. But face it, most of us have a “favorite” concern about schools. It may be sports, fine arts, technology, special education or something else. And that’s OK. A passionate voice on the board for a particular program can be a real strength for a board.
However, an elected school board member must also have a broad view of the district he or she is elected to govern. Every program offered by the district has value, or it should not be offered. Good board members recognize that, and try to build them all to their highest level of quality.
Sometimes individuals may also run for the school board to represent a particular political or philosophical point of view. School board elections are nonpartisan, but groups or organizations with a political agenda are often active in board elections.
Of course, this is OK, and it may even be good politics. Yet the best school board members are not so tied to a “cause” that they cannot fairly serve the entire school district. Voters should learn as much about school board candidates as possible in order to understand the philosophies of the people they elect.
Willingness to learn
State law requires very few qualifications for service as a school board member. Some individuals are elected with more immediate knowledge and skills than others. But in my experience, no member – regardless of occupation, intelligence or personal skills – knows all he/she needs upon election. Those school board members who approach their jobs with a commitment to fill those knowledge and skill gaps more effectively serve their school district and community.
Commitment to teamwork
Individual school board members have little power. But, by working well together as a “corporate body,” with the superintendent and other groups shaping public schools, virtually anything is possible for a school board as a whole.
Am I saying that every vote should be unanimous, that differences should not be voiced or that the board/superintendent relationship should always be perfect? No, I am not. I am saying that reasonable adults should work toward a common
vision and be able to disagree agreeably without creating lasting divisions that assure loss of public confidence.
Commitment to engaging the community
As any current school board member will tell you, school board service is much broader, much more challenging – and even much more rewarding – than solving a single problem. School board service involves balancing a complex set of community values that affect education. This requires listening, collaboration and give-and-take within the school district and within the community as a whole.
Serving on a local school board requires lots of time. No longer is it reasonable to expect board service to take only one night per month. Public education has become far too complex, and community expectations far too great, for the leisurely pace of yesteryear. Today’s board members say they can easily spend 45 hours per month on board work: staying abreast of issues, attending regular board meetings, work sessions and community meetings – not to mention personal phone calls and other contacts made. But most will say it’s time well spent.
Serving on a local school board can be one of the most rewarding challenges any citizen could hope for. The system works best when able and committed people step forward and serve their communities. If ever there was a time when quality leadership was needed, it is now.
