Jason and his family own a dairy farm, and when she’s not busy with work or family, Carrie enjoys celebrating Halloween 🎃 and soaking in the beautiful colors of fall 🍂—her favorite time of year!

Courtway Middle School is proud to welcome Kathleen Wilcox to our team as a special education teacher! 🍎✨

With 32 years of teaching experience, Kathleen has taught every grade level from kindergarten to 9th grade in private, charter, public, and even an overseas school. She loves helping students and co-workers, especially witnessing those exciting “ahhh moments” when a student finally understands or solves a problem. 💡📚

Outside the classroom, Kathleen enjoys canning sweet and spicy hot jelly, reading, painting, drawing, and crafting. She hopes to start weekly painting classes after school begins. Her favorite thing to do is spend time with her kids, Josiah and KeriAnna. 💙

We’re so excited to have her join the Courtway family! #ChampionsForKids #CWAYisTheWay

Middle school is a time to focus on learning, growing, and building strong connections. To support this—and in line with state law—students are not allowed to use personal electronic devices (cell phones, AirPods, smartwatches) during the school day. Devices must be turned off and kept in lockers or backpacks.

✅ Student Expectations:
Students must keep devices off and stored—no use during the school day. Devices may be accessed after the final bell.
