Wilkinson Early Childhood Center PTO

Our son has been a student at Wilkinson for four years now and we absolutely love it. Wilkinson ECC is a magnet school in the St. Louis Public School District and is a community of children, parents, staff (including a very active PTO), and Maryville University faculty and students dedicated to preparing autonomous citizens for a democratic society. Education is a process through which learners try to make sense of the universe. This constructivist process involves social, ethical, cognitive, symbolic, and physical growth and development. Children construct knowledge by building relationships between people, objects, and events. Staff collaborates to structure an open, caring and stimulating environment. In this environment, children make choices and develop positive dispositions towards active learning through themes, projects, and centers. Staff develops and shares expertise through participation in the Wilkinson Early Childhood Center-​Maryville Professional Development School Partnership. Working together, staff, parents, and children create a community of life-​long learners.
We highly encourage anyone interested in Wilkinson to call the school and speak to Julie Wuch, Principal, and schedule a tour. You’ll be impressed!
