Wylie has always been the most welcoming school the first time I ever stepped into a building almost 12 years ago. We have Wylie Way days where we step forward as a community and show how amazing of a school district we really are. The faculty and staff are amazing as well. Everyone is always making sure we have a perfect learning environment as well as making class fun. If I didn't go to Wylie, I wouldn't be where I am today. I feel safe walking into my classes everyday and I am always ready to learn! We have so many amazing clubs and after school activities that help me feel more welcomed each and everyday. I have never not felt welcomed in Wylie ISD. If I could stay with this community forever, I sure would!
Wylie ISD not only focuses heavily on academia, but also on personal responsibility and respect for others. Once a semester, academics are put on pause to emphasis a good characteristic, such as grit or hard work, throughout all schools for an entire day! Parents do not need to worry about their kids being indoctrinated into anti-American rhetoric. Most of the schools won multiple awards for high test scores on more than one occasion. The majority of teachers are decent with some exceptions. Most of all, Wylie ISD does not get caught in cheating scandals or anything similar. Overall, I'd give the district an A.
My children have been in WISD for 10 years even back then the area wasn't as diverse as we preferred. The first few years, we found the community, parents, teachers and administration to be generally welcoming. However, in the last 4-5 years intolerance has spread. The School Board is heavily influenced by a vocal contingent of parents previously thought to reflect the views of a small part of the community. The School Board tried to address the race issue in the schools by introducing Diversity and Inclusion; but it was met with forceful opposition that was politicized and turned into a culture war. The intolerance is not isolated to race; they also object to LGTBQ+ inclusion. Minority parents lack influence and community support; therefore, the learning environment will not improve anytime soon. While the quality of education is adequate; I would not recommend WISD for families seeking a diverse, inclusive and supportive learning environment for their children.
