A Message from Our Superintendent
Dear Wilmington Families,
Welcome to the website of the Wilmington School District 209U, home of the Wilmington Wildcats! As a proud member of the Wilmington High School graduating Class of 1992, I am both humbled and honored to have the opportunity to begin serving the students and families of Wilmington as the new Superintendent of Schools of the Wilmington School District.
The teachers, administration, and school board members of the Wilmington School District are undoubtedly, extremely proud of the 2016 State Champion WHS Competitive Cheerleading program, our 2014 Wilmington Wildcat State Championship football team, the Wildcat Wrestling dynasty, the inspiring baseball state titles of a decade ago, and a great number of individual state-wide recognitions earned by our student athletes. We are also blessed to see the honors earned by IMEA regional and state recognized musicians and some unbelievably talented theatrical performers on stage and visual artists on display. However, we must always remember that the Wilmington School District’s core mission is grounded in the comprehensive education of our children. A tremendous amount of hard work and intense effort takes place on a daily basis by the talented students, dedicated teachers, and tremendous support staff and administrative team of the Wilmington School District with this main focus in mind.
Wildcat pride runs deep all throughout the Wilmington School District and the entire community of Wilmington. It is truly an honor to be given the opportunity to serve our kids and families as the Superintendent of Schools. Looking forward to an outstanding school year!
Go Wildcats!
Matt Swick
