Overall, Wilkinson Elementary is a great school. All 3 of my children went there from Pre-K through 6th Grade. They always got the support they needed. I would recommend this school.

Most of the teachers and staff are very good as with most places there are a couple teachers and one admin/AP that are a drain on the school and the new AP is why some of the better Teachers are leaving to go to other schools which is a shame since this school needs all the good ones it can get and most of these kids are lower income and special needs . But when the people at the top only look at numbers and not people this is what you get. I suppose it may never change , and as for some of these 5 star reviews I call BS fake news . All of the people up front except for the assistant principal seem to be good people but the AP will be the downfall of that school and they wont do anything until its too late.

I don't know why this school got a low rate. I have a daughter that goes here and they just do excellent with her. she is difficult to handle sometimes because of the fact she had adhd. They do everything they can to help her in the studies most needed. The teachers are excellent, the staff is great and the counselors are excellent as well. The only complaint I have on this school is that they need to make a bigger parking lot

Wilkinson is a Great school. I have lived in this area for 8 years, moving from Duval County. My oldest started 2nd grade here and she was behind. The teachers at Wilkinson helped her grow and before completing the first year she was reading at 3rd grade level. She has been an honor roll student ever since and loves school. She is now a Sophomore and plans to go on to a University to study math and science. Thanks WES. My second daughter is now a 6th grader and has done as well as her sister. The teachers are wonderful and they always expect the most from the kids because they know the students are capable of learning. They actually TEACH and are likable by both students and parents. A "B" now and still improving.

All three of my children have went to W.E.S. Two of them are still going. First I want to correct the SchoolGrade. Wilkinson is now a B school.The teachers and staff are wonderful. What this school lacks the most is parent involvement.Teachers can only do so much for our children. We must continue helping at home.
