'Tis the season! Girls basketball is tipping off season at home with a jamboree against Purdy and Southwest (Washburn). Admission is FREE if you bring a canned good for our school's backpack program! The schedule is as follows: Southwest v. Purdy (5:00 PM) Purdy v. Wheaton Wheaton v. Southwest See you there! (We will use a rolling schedule so teams should be ready to take the court as soon as the previous game is over. Each game will consist of two 8 minute periods with a 1-minute break between periods. )

Academic gains and birthday's! We enjoyed celebrating these kiddos this week! 🎉

Congratulations to our Super Sonic teacher of the month! We’re incredibly lucky to have Mrs. Mattingly on our team—a true supersonic force in kindergarten education! Not only does she bring energy, creativity, and a passion for teaching young learners, but she has also taken our Parents as Teachers (PAT) program to new heights. Through her hard work, dedication, and visionary leadership, Mrs. Mattingly has expanded the PAT program in Wheaton to reach more families and support early childhood development in ways that make a lasting impact. We’re grateful for her commitment to our students, parents, and community!

5th graders completed a science activity where they measured, and learned that air is matter because it has mass and takes up space.

The Bulldogs are getting heated up for their season! Maroon & White game and bonfire is this Thursday. All students and community members are invited to be part of Wheaton tradition!
