Ms. Wilson is the mother of 5 children, all whom attended Stonecreek. As a fellow community member, the culture and program at Stonecreek are very close to her heart. Ms. Wilson believes that Jr. High is an exciting time of transition for students. This is often where they begin exploring interests through electives and start thinking about college and career. It is also where the skills and organization needed for success in High School are first taught. As your child’s principal, Ms. Wilson seeks to cultivate an environment where your children can thrive and discover their passions and interests.
