Wingate Elementary School

Today Wingate celebrates a very special group of women who make our days brighter!
Nurse Douglas-Thank you for being the calm in every storm. From ice packs and bandaids to broken bones, thank you for your calm presence, caring words and expert advice to staff and families.
To our three secretaries-Katy, Yesenia and Renee-Whether it is a forgotten lunch, a bus change, a warm welcome for a new family, a report to be run or spreadsheet created, the three of you are the glue that hold us together. Thank you for your patience, your smiles and your organization.
Wingate wouldn't be the same without these four ladies. Thank you for all you do everyday for students, our staff and families! Enjoy your special day. #19WESPride #19EveryStudent
