Welcoming kindergarten through fifth grade students in the Wilmington neighborhood of Los Angeles, Wilmington Park Elementary School is a public school that helps students achieve their highest academic potential.
From the moment students step through the doors of the school’s grand entryway, Wilmington Park students enter an environment where building strong relationships and fostering respect among peers and teachers is the gold standard. Students learn through the Common Core State Standards curriculum, which offers a well-rounded education and puts students on the path to receiving their high school diploma.
Restorative justice is emphasized at Wilmington Park, a teaching approach that empowers students to resolve conflicts independently or within small groups. The goal is to use peer reinforcement to bring students together to work on solutions, have important conversations and forge stronger connections.
Another differentiator is the school’s emphasis on community partners and parent involvement. Wilmington Park has a partnership with the Boys and Girls Club of the Los Angeles Harbor for after-school programming. A preschool program is also available for young learners on the Wilmington Park campus, so students receive educational support and encouragement through every step of their elementary school journey.
