We are #CISDProud to share that during the recent Board Meeting on Aug. 28, Wilson Elementary was recognized for receiving the 2023 Student Leadership Award from the Texas Elementary Principals and Supervisors Association (TEPSA).
This remarkable achievement shines a spotlight on the outstanding efforts of the Wilson Student Council, who dedicated themselves to making a profound impact on both the school and the community throughout the last school year.
The spirit of leadership and community has flourished within Wilson Elementary. The Student Council took charge in fostering school spirit and nurturing a positive campus culture, playing a vital role in organizing the much-loved annual school carnival, Wilson Fest. Their infectious enthusiasm infused the event with vibrancy and excitement.
Their commitment to spreading positivity extended even further through their “Valograms” initiative, allowing learners to share heartwarming messages of kindness and friendship. Such gestures truly encapsulate the essence of the tight-knit Wilson school community.
Yet, their impact didn't stop within the walls of Wilson. Wilson Student Council embarked on the "Turkify a Teacher" fundraiser, touching hearts by purchasing presents for a Coppell family in need through a partnership with the incredible organization "Make a Child Smile."
Additionally, their compassionate spirit led them to host numerous drives that provided invaluable support to both community organizations and the school.

We are #CISDProud to announce that that during the recent Board Meeting on Aug. 28, Richard J. Lee Elementary was recognized for receiving the 2023 Student Leadership award from the Texas Elementary Principals and Supervisors Association (TEPSA).
This recognition is a testament to the exceptional character, integrity, and unwavering eagerness to help displayed by the learners in grades K-5 who make up the remarkable "LEEdership council." These young LEEders have showcased the true essence of leadership through their selfless actions and positive contributions.
From adding a touch of positivity to teachers' days by decorating coffee sleeves with uplifting messages to making a lasting impact through acts of kindness, Richard J. Lee's LEEdership Council shines as a beacon of inspiration. During "The Great Kindness Challenge" week, they channeled their creativity to design posters for Coppell Middle School West, spreading kindness one poster at a time.
Their dedication to the community doesn't stop there — through a successful canned food drive for Sack Summer Hunger in support of Metrocrest Services, they've shown their commitment to making a meaningful difference in the lives of others. Also, as the school year drew to a close in May 2023, these extraordinary LEEders encouraged fellow learners to create Memorial Day Cards, a touching gesture that resonated deeply as they placed these heartfelt cards on gravesites at the DFW National Cemetery.
Let's give a resounding applause to Richard J. Lee Elementary for instilling such outstanding leadership qualities in our young learners and for shaping a future filled with compassion, kindness and positive change. #CISDMissionPossible
