Hi Wiley Community! Just an update on the roofing project....as expected, there are some delays and the roofers will not be able to finish the project before we start school. So,....what that means is there will be some drop off/pick up changes needed and some parking adjustments we will need to do for the first few weeks of school while the roofing contractors are still in our front lot. We will be connecting with parents about updated procedures for parking, drop off, and pick up shortly! Thanks for your support of our building upgrade projects!

A big thank you goes out to the junior high youth group from Mountain View UMC in Boulder. They came to Wiley as part of their summer mission project and helped spruce up the windmill flower bed. Pulled lots of weeds and put down mulch, it l looks great. Thank you.
