Principal's Message

Welcome to Acquinton Elementary School! 


My name is Kristen Wilken, and I am excited and honored to serve as the principal at AES. This summer I have enjoyed getting to know some of the staff, students, and families and I look forward to meeting everyone as the 2023-2024 school year kicks off!


I am joining Acquinton Elementary with 17 years of public school experience throughout a variety of settings. My educational experience includes 9 years as a teacher, both general education and special education, as well as 8 years in various leadership roles. 


This year, our theme is “growing greatness!” I know that I’m joining a great school with dedicated teachers and curious learners and I can’t wait to see how we continue to grow greatness this year. Over the years, I have seen first hand how collaboration between parents, teachers, and staff lead to successful outcomes for all students. I encourage parents to get involved in our school, whether through the PTA, attending school events, or volunteering, so we can all work together and our students can continue to grow.


Be sure to follow us on Facebook! Please do not hesitate to contact me if I can ever be of assistance. 


In partnership,


Kristen Wilken
