Vision and innovation start at the very foundation of our school. Opened in 1992, in a fast-growing suburb of Dallas, Wilson Elementary was entrusted to the leadership of a highly creative principal, Dr. Julie Combs. As the school and staff have matured, many traditions born in 1992 remain, including a Family Lunch cafeteria concept, the Ranger Creed and the school logo. Over the years, staff selection has been of key importance. Values required include a demonstration of a strong work ethic, belief in including all children, ability to be a positive team member, and a craving to know more.
Programs reflect our core values.
With parents as our partners, we serve 445 neighborhood children. Moreover, our community nurtures a rich tradition of generosity in gifts of money, talents, and time. The 52 students who qualify for free or reduced lunch receive many other caring gifts such as scholarships, mentors, health services and holiday packages. The number one reason families locate to Coppell is for its quality public education. Rich in pride and tradition, the Texas Rangers serve as the oldest state law enforcement organization in America.
