Principal's Message

Greetings, Phillis Wheatley Families and Community!

Welcome to the 24-25 school year at Phillis Wheatley Elementary, Home of the Panthers! I am thrilled to welcome back our students, families, and staff as we embark on an exciting journey together.

This year, our theme is "Under Construction! Building Brighter Futures!" This theme reflects our commitment to laying the foundation for academic success and personal growth for every student. With your support and dedication, we are not only building knowledge but also resiliency, creativity, and a sense of community.

I am incredibly proud to share that we earned a 52% C school grade last year, just 2% away from achieving a B. This accomplishment is a testament to the hard work and determination of our students, teachers, and families. We are committed to reaching new heights this year and working collaboratively to continue our upward trajectory.

At Phillis Wheatley Elementary, we believe that every student has the potential to achieve greatness. Our dedicated staff is committed to providing an engaging, supportive, and inclusive learning environment where every child feels valued and empowered to succeed.

As we navigate the year ahead, we will focus on academic excellence, fostering a love of learning, and building strong partnerships with our families and community. Together, we will construct a bright future for our scholars, equipping them with the skills and confidence they need to thrive.

Thank you for your continued support and trust in us. We look forward to an incredible year of growth, learning, and achievement.

Go Panthers!

Warm regards,

Tabitha Brown
