Thank you for choosing Wings!

A key aspect of this partnership is the involvement of parent volunteers. Teachers request the help of parent volunteers to prepare materials, complete projects, chaperone field trips, and help with class parties. If you would like to volunteer in your child’s classroom, let your child’s teacher know of your interest.

We are glad your child is a part of Wings Academy. We intend to do our best to make each child feel safe, welcome, and excited about learning. We are proud of our educational program; it’s a unique program that seeks to bring out the very best in every child while helping them deal with any challenges they face. As part of this, we are the only school in the area to use the Orton-Gillingham method to increase the students’ reading and writing abilities.

If you have any questions, feel free to call us to schedule a conference or stop by for a visit. Please remember: A) You must stop by the office and sign in when visiting the school, and B) You must do so Before visiting the classroom. No Exceptions!
